Hi everyone,

My fiance is coming form England but his 2 college age kids are staying there and won't be moving to the US with him. My question is will he still need to get copies of their birth certificates to take to the K-1 interview in London?

Thanks for your help.

Been there, done that. The answer is no. Nor is his first marriage certificate needed. Only his divorce decree. I remember puzzling over the same question because of the way some things were worded to cover all kinds of visas and situations.

Been scouring the site for this answer...thanks! We were a lil nervous b/c as we were going over the list of needed documents, we were concerned about his needing his daughter's birth certificate. And also on other posts within visajourney, it says that the London embassy is the one that requires birth certificates of children, even if they're not coming. We had her listed as his child on the visa form, but she's also in university (19yrs old) and won't be joining Dave in America.

Nich-Nick :) thanks for clearing this hiccup for us!

Happy 4th of July!! :D
