I looked up on google card of citizenship and its only showing ppl that naturalized to the US... if your sponsor was born here then a birth cert/ us passport would be all I can think of unless a drivers license/ apt lease or utility statment...?? Maybe somebody else will know and can answer..

my husband said he had only the birth certificate and she said that he needed a certificate of citizenship

Of the about 299 million US citizen living in the United States, less than 1% have a Certificate of Citizenship. It needs to be applied for via form N-600, costs $600, takes 6 months to get, and has only 1 purpose: to get the first US passport which henceforward serves as proof of US citizenship. Neither my wife, who is a natural-born US citizen, nor I, a naturalized US citizen, have a Certificate of Citizenship. In fact, I don't know anybody who has one.

I tell you which people have one: those who were born outside the US and have very muddy documentation pertaining to their parents. Oftentimes a child is born out of wedlock in a foreign country and the dad disappeared shortly after, which happened often during the war years, whether in WWII or Vietnam. All of this needs to be sorted through in order to establish the claim to US citizenship. That's when the person files a N-600 petition and eventually gets a Certificate of Citizenship.

What they are asking for is completely against US law and policy. Not only that: it's hogwash.

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.

Someone born in the US would never have a certificate of citizenship. The consulate surely knows this. Are you sure your joint sponsor was born in the US, and wasn't born abroad with a US citizen parent? Any chance they're questioning the validity of the birth certificate he provided? Was it a certified copy or a copy of a certified copy? Was it a maybe a short-form birth certificate?

For someone born in the United States, proof of citizenship may be a copy of the original long-form birth certificate certified to be a legitimate copy by the state's custodian of records, or a US passport. Copies of these documents will usually be accepted. Copies of a birth certified birth certificate should include both sides. Copies of a US passport should include all pages.

Have your husband send you the sheet that the interviewer gave him so that you clearly understand what is being requested. It sounds like there is a piece missing here.
