Please I need urgent help!

I am the beneficiary and I will have interview next week (k1 visa).

I am panicking! I am reading that my fiancè (us citizen) will need the birth certificate?

Is it true?

Is enough the naturalization certificate?

Thank you very much for your reply!

My fiancè is the US citizen (he wasn't born in the US, he got his citizenship through naturalization).

I am the beneficiary.

I was reading again the forms needed for the interview and it seems I have to bring also the birth certificate of the petitioner (my fiancè).

Well I don't have it and there is no time to get it now (in one week he will never have the time to request it, translate it and send it to me).

Please tell me that for the Consulate is enough the naturalization certificate stating his country of birth!

Thank you

Here is what I was reading (I can't believe I am realizing it now!!!)

2. BIRTH CERTIFICATES: The original or certified copy of the birth certificate of each person named in the application, including the person who filed the original petition, is required. Birth records must be presented for all unmarried children under age 21, even if they do not wish to immigrate at this time (if children are deceased, so state giving year of death). The certificate must state the date and place of birth and the names of both parents. The certificate must also indicate that it is an extract from official records. If you or any children were adopted, you must submit a certified copy of the final adoption decree.

Unobtainable birth certificate: Your birth record may not be obtainable because, e.g., your birth was never officially recorded; your birth records have been destroyed; or the appropriate government authority will not issue one. In such a case, please obtain a certified statement from the appropriate government authority stating the reason your birth record is not available. With the certified statement you must present secondary evidence such as: a baptismal certificate that contains the date and place of birth and both parent’s names providing the baptism took place shortly after birth; an adoption decree for an adopted child; or an affidavit from a close relative, preferably the applicant’s mother, stating the date and place of birth, both parent’s names, and the mother’s maiden name. An affidavit must be executed before an official authorized to take oaths or affirmations. Information regarding the procedures for obtaining birth certificates is usually available from the embassy or consulate of the country concerned.

For our interview - we had my (the USC) birth certificate but the consulate never asked for it. To be absolutely certain - ask him to contact the Embassy/Consulate directly IVNaples@state.gov

You should be fine with the Naturalization Certificate - they need to have proof that your fiance is a US citizen. They are assuming that he was born in the US so that is why they are requesting his birth certificate. He didn't receive his US citizenship at birth, however, and acquired it through naturalization. So, to prove he is a US citizen and eligible to petition for a fiancee, his Naturalization Certificate is fine.

Good luck at the interview! Take deep breaths and try not to worry. You'll be fine.

I really don't know how to thank you all for your help!

I will email now the consulate and keep my finger crossed that the naturalization certificate is enough!

I cannot believe how stupid I am!

Things will work out fine no matter what in the end, this is a difficult and arduous task you and your fiance have undertaken. Lots of us made some errors and things we wished we would have done different during our journeys.

Like others have said, step back, take a deep breath and stop hammering on yourself.
