I am filing an application for my broth. I am a US citizen by naturalization and I uploaded a copy of my naturalization certificate and US passport. I also uploaded copies of my brother's birth certificate and mine showing both of our parents. When I click next it takes me to the "additional evidence page"  :

"

  • Religious record
  • School records
  • Census records
  • Written statements"

 

I wanted to skip this page since I assume Naturalization certificate and US passport should be enough to prove my citizenship, but when I skip it alerts me with a yellow exclamation mark and an alert. Does this apply to me or just a standard alert to everyone?  I assume I can submit my application with submitting any of the "additional evidence"?

Yes. Extra documentation is only required when the primary documents are unavailable

If you have all the birth certificates showing family connections, these are not necessary. 
 

You are aware it will probably take about 15 years before your brother gets a visa?

Thanks for all the answers. Yes I am aware it will take 15 years. In fact that works best for us at this time. We are planning for the future.

The certificates are brand new made in English from the Government. The very original certificate was issued at birth. I don't think that is the issue.

It’s just a standard warning on the site. You can ignore it.
