您好,
我在提交form I-485后,收到了USCIS的request for initial evidence, 说我提交的出生证不符合要求,需要提交一份"notarial certificate of birth," 虽然我提交的了盖有中国卫生部章的法定出生医学证明,并且提交了英文翻译。
请问我该如何公证/认证我的出生证?我人在美国,是应该通过中国领事馆进行领事三级认证吗?谢谢!
Hi,
I received a letter from USCIS requesting for initial evidence after I submitted my form I-485 to adjust status and apply for permanent residency. The letter says the birth certificate I submitted was insufficient and that I need a "notarial certificate of birth," even though I did include the official version of my birth certificate with the Chinese Ministry of Health's stamp on as well as a legitimate translation.
How should I go about this? I currently live in the US and can't go to China by myself at the moment. I know the Chinese Embassy here offers an authentication service where you have to go have your document notarized by a local notary, then a county clerk and finally the secretary of the state before you can have it authenticated by the Embassy. I assume the purpose of this authentication service is to primarily authenticate documents issued in the US that are to be used in China, so I'm not sure what I should do. Please help. Thank you!!
