    The year I was born, they gave parents (or at least mine anyway in the state I was born) a "commemorative" birth certificate. (It looked completely different to all other birth certs born the previous years) So I guess it wasnt really 'short', more that it was "commemorative" I didnt discover...

    hmmm to follow it up with an actual question... I've noticed on my birth certificate they misspelt the city my mum was born in (Gossau, Switzerland - they spelt it with a 'v' - Gossav) (Dad's Aussie) I've also entered it as that on the DS260 as Gossav. Should I bother having my birth...

    That's so messed up :( I'd be checking every day to make sure it hadn't been unlocked if that happened to me - and it's a long time between now and a potential interview People frustrate me sometimes - that's a whole new level of creepy

    You can change the address at your POE if it needs to be updated from what you had put on your DS260 I saw on an old thread someone also changed theirs at the actual interview but am not sure if you are still able too or not

    I cannot speak for everyone, just on an experience from an ex-co worker. He had been working as a lawyer for a few years (gradudated from University of Western Aus with a law degree) and moved over to Nashville, Tennessee (wife was American). He found his degree wasnt transferrable to be a...

Does it work...

    It's not unusual for people not to know of anyone in the States to have it sent too. I have 0 family there (all are in Australia, Dubai and Switzerland) and the person I was going to use is moving now and logistically I dont trust them enough to mail it back to me. I've already submitted the...
