Parent's marriage certificate date conflicts as shown in Petitioner's birth certificate.

[Rap 0]

I'm filing I-130 for my parents based on naturalized U.S. citizen and I noticed that the date of marriage of my parents in my birth certificate was the date of their church wedding. My parents were first married in civil wedding and I have a copy of their marriage certificate on their civil wedding for the I-130. Will their be problems in USCIS due to the conflict dates of their marriage? I don't have the their church marriage certificate and I have only the certified civil marriage certificate. Thank you.....

I would include a letter indicating the reason for the date discrepancy (church vs. civil ceremony) so that if someone actually sees the difference, they already have a written explanation from you.

Good luck!

If this comes up you can best explain it via affidavits. In your situation can you get affidavits from the Church officials on this point? Also to consider - affidavits from your parents or others who are aware of the Church Date versus Civil Date?
