You need to submit the required documents as asked for 

USCIS and NVC are well aware of what paperwork is normal for each and every country

 

In our case the lawyer sent a copy (on US paper ) for our marriage and NVC wanted an original (reason being the paper size in Morocco is different) so i sent it

your case will go no further till you do exactly as they want you to do

 

BTW when sending these make sure you label each and every page in the upper right hand corner with your case #,  both names and both Dates of birth   or immigration will not know where  to file your papers and that''s how things get lost

 

Keep a copy of all you are sending for your own files to prove you did this

This is nt hard. 

  1. Get an Uncle/ aunt/ neighbor/  niece etc...basically someone who knows you, your wife and the child very well.
  2. Write a standard one paragraph letter for each and have each sign. That's it. No need for lawyer. Just rememebr that they do not forget to include the (4) bullet point mentioned by USCIS in your attached screenshot. 

Immigration journey is not: fast, for the faint at heart, easy, cheap, for the impatient nor right away. If more than 50% of this applies to you, best get off the bus.
