Hi! Quick question...I thought I had everything in order, but I just read a review of someone not getting approved in Juarez due to not presenting a long form birth certificate. In WI, they just give you one with your parents last names and first inital. I'm afraid that this won't be enough information for them to consider it 'long form'. I gave my fiance a copy of my entire passport as well. Can this copy serve as proof of citizenship or do I have to send him my original passport? Any help is greatly appreciated since I'm going to have to DHL it this afternoon to get it there in time. Thanks!!

Emily

Have him print out and bring a copy of your passport for backup. Your birth cert should be fine. Do they even have a "long form" birth cert in the US? I never had one... They accepted my regular one from MA so far... which sounds just like yours in WI.

Hi Emily,

Well this happened to me,but just cross your finger and they take whatever your fiance has with him.I don't even know why this happened to us. When all of our paperwork was at Vermont they never said anything about it. So just relax and GOOD LUCK I think it all depends on the officer that will interview him. GOOD LUCK to you and you fiance. :thumbs:

And by the way they also had a copy of my passport but like I told you, you never know what they will want at last minute.
