Secondary birth certificate evidence

[Deben 0]

Hi, 

I have submitted I-485 form. I did not have birth certificate at my birth. So I provided birth certificate (late) from my birth country and also affidavit from my parents. 

Last week I got RFE  which states " You have submitted secondary evidence and/or a birth affidavit as proof of birth record. However, the evidence you have submitted is insufficient. Examples of acceptable secondary evidence may include but not limited to church, school records listing your parents' names and your date of birth.

-I have certificate from high school which have my father's name (not mother's name) and my date of birth. Will this certificate work for the evidence? 

 

In addition to a birth affidavit and secondary evidence, Title 8 code of federal regulations, section 103.2(B)(ii) states: "Where a record doest to exist, the applicant must submit an original written statement on government letterhead establishing this from the relevant government. "

-As I understand, I have secondary evidence for birth. I think I could ignore above paragraph. is this correct?

 

 

I asked with a lawyer, he asked for $1000. Is there any less expensive legal support?

 

Thank you 

I appreciate your suggestions
