Hello, my wife who is now a US Citizen applied to bring her mother to the US from Peru. We received a request for additional evidence saying her birth certificate did not meet the requirements. The letter includes several requirements and then says "All certificates must bear the seal of either the Provincial or District Council and, for immigrant visa processing, must be certified by the Chief of the Registro Nacional de Identificacion Y Estado Civil (RENIEC) office that certifies the documents. Her birth certificate was issued by the Municipalidad Metropolitana De Lima and carries the seals and certification as well as a stamp that states it is a legal copy of her original birth certificate.
Does anyone know why this document was rejected and how to get the proper version? We are confused and do not know what to do next.
