Documents for interview

[BLC 112]

I know the applicant has to bring their original/certified copies of documents to the interview. My husband left his marriage and birth certificates with me in the US accidentally, so rather than wait for his new certificates he ordered to arrive, I just uploaded the ones I had here to CEAC.
 

Just to clarify, the document/registration numbers on the ones we uploaded on Ceac and his new ones are, of course, different. So let’s say:

marriage cert uploaded to Ceac: A

birth cert uploaded to Ceac: B

marriage cert physically with husband: A1

birth cert physically with husband: B1

So my question is, can he bring the newly ordered birth certificate (B1) and marriage certificate (A1), or does he need the ones uploaded to CEAC (A & B)?  If anyone has any first hand experiences at London Embassy where people have brought originals, but not the same exact ones uploaded, that would be great! Thanks!

If the ones he has are certified/original/etc., they'll be accepted.  They don't compare serial numbers or wrinkles-on-the-page between the uploaded version and the version he brings.

 

For those of you who don't know...in the U.S. I can request new "certified" copies of my birth certificate and my marriage license from the appropriate agencies.  The new copies have the same legal standing as the old, worn-out, aged ones I have in my safe deposit box.
