My fiance is in the Philippines and somebody told her I need her birth certifcate for the 129F along with mine. However, the US government site only asks for the 'birth certificate of the US citizen' in the K-1 guide? Do I need HER Philippine birth certificate for submitting out 129F? Her friend also said a photocopy would do (she could email me a photocopy of her birth certificate) but Im not sure it's needed? Help!!

You only need to provide your own birth certificate with the I129f. This is to show proof that you are a US citizen as the petitioner. Like the other person said, she will however need to have her birth certificate present at the interview. Although my fiancé is in Thailand, she had to send a copy of the certificate with packet 3 and will have to present a certified copy at the interview.
