Before getting married to my husband in Bosnia-Herzegovina, I have contacted the Embassy of U.S.A in Bosnia, and was given the following instructions in order for our marriage / documents to be legaly recognized in USA:

In addition to receiving the "regular"Bosnian marriage certificate, we have requested an international marriage certificate.

The form is in French, name on the form is Extrait De L'Acte De Mariage No. 002798, Formule B, and also it has Bosnian translations on it.

We then took the international marriage certificate to the municipal court in the town where we married and received an apostille stamp.

We have done all this as guided by US Embassy.

However, in the guide above on this website it says that all documents that need to be submitted with I -130 must be translated into English.

My questions:

1.Anyone else had this same form / marriage certificate like us?

2. Is this "international" marriage certificate exempt from the translate into English rule?

3.If I must translate the marriage certificate into English, who performs such services? Where do I go, where to start my search? (I live in Garland, TX - Dallas County, if someone happens to know of a particular location)

Thank you all for your help!
