Parents Laos

[JungleOne 0]

My wife and I are petitioning her parents to come to the US from Laos.  Does anyone know what the marriage certificate looks like or rather what is needed to show family relationship?  Family book?  

 

They sent us a copy of the marriage certificate along with a translated one but it was very confusing as it doesn't state a date of marriage rather just an acknowledgment of marriage.

What kind of visa?

To clarify...this is in reference to prove family relationship of the father on the I-130 petition. (General Requirements, 5(F))

There is no marriage date on the family book. They need to go to their city office and issue their marriage license. Things that show family relationship include photos together, family books, your wife’s birth certificate that has her parents’s name and dates of births. 
 

Intro: I’m from Laos, too, and I am currently petitioning for my parents. My dad’s case is already approved by the NVC, but my mom’s passport wasn’t good enough, so I resubmitted it in January 13. I hope to hear from them within the next two weeks.
