I am in the same situation and just called the clerk of courts at my county.  They will charge $20 for certifying the divorce order.  It is a 2 page document that states that the marriage is dissolved (order of granting marriage dissolution).  But there is also another 20 page document that is called "filed stipulation". It has all the guts of the decree like schedule, holiday time, etc etc etc.  The county charges 50 cents per page plus $20 to certify.  

 

My question is , is the 2 page certified order is good enough or I need the the 2 page order and filed stipulation?  My fiancee may get an interview date in June at MTL. 

 

Thanks again.

Hey there my document were from north Dakota and there was only one option so I'm honestly not sure sorry.  I can tell you or document includes All of the split in dept finance and possessions.  Wish I could be more help

Just wanted to update anyone who was interested. We got super lucky and one my my fiancees old coworkers was able to pick up the letter and mail it priority to me and it will get here by end of day Monday. Cutting it close but it is the only thing I am missing so thanks for all the advice. You all helped us keep a cool head and fix the situation.

Tough one.  If you read the instructions it stipulates that all evidence should be a legible photocopy unless an original is SPECIFICALLY requested.  An original or certified divorce decree is not on the list of specifically requested originals.  The instructions also go on to say that if an original is provided that was not specifically requested that it may be destroyed.  Theoretically they should have it in the file but they might have made a copy of it and destroyed the one you submitted.  I am surprised that they are requesting an original from the USC

Dear Applicant,

Your interview is scheduled for May 16, 2018 in order to avoid delays in processing your file you need to bring the following original documents that are not currently on your file:

My fiancee (US) doesn't have his original - I'm not sure how many people do. That being said, if you go to the County Clerk and request a certified copy of the final divorce decree, I believe that is like an original. I.e., there is a physical seal and signature on the final divorce decree.. does that make sense? That's what we are going to do... the document is then in essence kind of like the long birth certificate you would request from your province. It is clearly a photocopy of the original long birth certificate but there is a seal on it and signature certifying the copy to be as valid as an original. 

 

Although, how soon is your interview? Could you get overnighted documents? 

 

If anyone has heard differently about this - please let us know! 

Sadly my interview is on wendsday, one week away and my fiance moved out of state from where the divorce took place. So he can get an original mailed to him but there is no way he gets it and gets it to me by 8am Tuesday when I have to fly to the interview. The copy we sent in with the original application was a certified copy because we were told it had to be. But now all I have is a copy

Today I received an email from the embassy reminding me of my impending appointment within the email it reminded me of documentation that I am required to bring. Within their it requests original and copies of all divorce certificates for both of us. Now my fiance the petitioner has been divorced and when we originally filed we sent in a certified copy of his divorce certificate. This was the only certified copy we had and we never received it back. So now for me to bring to the interview I only have a copy I cannot bring an original and there is no time for me to get it before the interview. I'm just looking for your guyses advice on what I should do? We already submitted a certified copy during the initial process do I still need another one for the interview or will they have access to that certified copy?

Thanks for your time

Hey there im worried i dont have the right police check and as many on here i am antsy to get everything perfect. What police certs do they want? I attached the top of the one I currently have but I'm worried it's not good enough.

Thanks for your time

Bellow are examples....

So I got my case sent up the chain and am confused about the email I got and was wondering if anyone can give me a hand with explaining this. Let me start off by saying that we did not in any way ask for our case to be expedited.

The U.S. Embassy in MONTREAL, CAN approved your request for expedited processing of your immigrant visa application. The National Visa Center sent your petition to this U.S. Embassy for their action. The Embassy will contact you soon to schedule a visa interview.

Hey there with the timeline for approvals moving along I am getting antsy. When I get my packet 3 I had a couple questions.

1. Birth cert, marriage cert, divorce cert, court records, military records, and police certs . Are these mine (canadian) or my fiances (american) 

2. If the infornation is my infornation what police certs do they want? In Ontario we have 2 kinds of criminal record checks.

Thanks for your time
