Police report and birth certificate specifics

[LenaSoph 0]

Hi all! I have a few clarification questions regarding these two parts of the k-1 petition.

1) Do both my fiancé and I (foreigner and US citizen, respectively) have to complete the police report and turn in our birth certificate?

2) In order to translate these documents (Spanish-->English) does it have to be a certified translator? We both are fluent in both languages, can we translate them and sign that they are correct?

3) Do both of these documents need to be provided in the k-1 petition, or just brought to the Embassy interview?

 

Thank you so, so much for all your help!

1) only beneficiary

2) check your embassy website, mine said as long as it is certified anyone can do it (I certified it under each translation) certify doesn’t mean someone needs a certification but they need to certify that they are capable of doing the translation and said translation is accurate.

3) interview

My police certificate was required at the medical in the uk. I'm not sure if that'll be the same for everywhere though!
