you might be able to get away with just a copy of your passport book--that's what I used as my identifying document. Our pink slip even indicates that I didn't provide one (see my photos)--but your case may be different so keep searching for an answer.

My sister who was born in VN and only a few months when they immigrated didn't have a birth cert because my mom never filed. She requested one from the VN government a few years ago, and after quite a bit of hassle, they granted her a birth certificate. Again, your case is different because you were actually born in a refugee camp in Malaysia...so hopefully someone else can chime in...

I think every case is different but at my interview, the C.O requested my birth certificate. I submitted a copy of my passport in the initial I-130. But on the interview checklist, you need the petitioner birth certificate. I had to have my mom overnite it to me in VN, cost me $70 :angry:

I was born in Laos at home and my mom does not have a birth certificate for me. I emailed the Lao embassy in Canada and they are advising me to get a lawyer on my behalf to contact Lao Embassy to issue a birth certificate. Is this necessary?
