I can't make heads or tails of question 10 on the I-129F regarding birth/naturalization certificate. I'm a natural born citizen, but the example on this site instructs not to provide birth certificate number?? Also, what's with the "parents" box?? What are they asking for there? Again, the example on this site leaves all this blank... is that OK?

The example on here is not blank. It says my citizenship was acquired through.....and the birth in US box is ticked.

Yes, the box is for naturalization certificate number. You don't need to write your birth certificate number. I know, question 10 on I-129F is not very clear. However, if you take a look at question 13 on I-130 form which is clearer on this question, then it will be clear for you:

13. If you are a U.S. citizen, complete the following:

My citizenship was acquired through (check one):

Birth in the U.S.

Naturalization. Give certificate number and date and place of issuance.

_________________________________________________________

and so on. So for your case, you just check "Birth in the U.S. box."

I-130 Timeline with USCIS:

It took 92 days for I-130 to get approved from the filing date

NVC Process of I-130:

It took 78 days to complete the NVC process

Interview Process at The U.S. Embassy

Interview took 223 days from the I-130 filing date. Immigrant Visa was issued right after the interview

zencat,

Poor form design.

US births are recorded at the local level - county or perhaps even town - each having their own format, numbering system, etc. BC numbers would be next to meaningless. Naturalization certificates, however, come from only one entity - the entity that's going to want to be checking the naturalization file as they process a petition submitted by a naturalized citizen.
