I have noticed from some of the responses here that one can expect RFE for delayed BC registrations. I do not know what it means. I got my BC done in India just a year ago for thsi GC purpose only. Does this amount to delayed registration . If so, please someone can provide info for affidivats please. Appreciate it.

BirthCertificate - RFE for delayed Registrations ????
- Thread starter MN-Lucky
- Start date
Same issue
I got on RFE regarding BC. I got BC recently and INS is asking for 2 affidavits from my birth witnesses (parents and Uncle) and my Lawyer suggest me to send an non-availability certificate from my local Government also. Right now, I am in the process of getting these docs.
I don\'t know whether non-availability certificate is required for INS. The problem for me is when I was registered my BC I didn\'t get the non-availability certificate. And my parents are getting one now. But the non-availability certificate is going to say later date than BC register date. I want to know, will this creates a problem ? or just send 2 affidavits alone.

Response to EVR_Govinda7 and pvc...
EVR_Govinda7 :
INS is asking for 2 or more Birth witness affidavits. Not neccessarily be Uncle. It can be any elderer who were at the time of your birth. But, you have to clearly explain the releationship between you and your parents with the person gives the affidavits. And also i think "just parents" won\'t be enough. You need to get one from other than parents also. I got 1 from my Dad, 1 from my Dad\'s brother and 1 from my mom\'s brother. Please let me know if you need more info. And also I would send Secondary/Higher Secondary school leaving certificates whcih shows your birth dates. Because these 2 certificates normally issued by Local or state governments.
pvc:
You have 80% change to get an RFE. Pray your god that you want be on other 20% side. It totally depends on IIO. Some IIO\'s don\'t care about dates as long as you have valid BC. But, most of the IIO\'s issues an RFE (asking to submit affidavits) if BC taken recently.

I got the RFE and got only one affidavit.
I already got the affidavits from by parents. My lawyer says that\'s enough. She must have sent the reply by now to the INS. I am sending my High school diploma and what they call in India "High school book", both of which have the date of birth. Hope that\'s enough or you think I should get one more affidavit ?

Birthcertificate question
if one has only 2 affidavites and no birthcertificates, will that be enough? isn\'t affidavites are created if you don\'t have anything?
do one need a letter from village/panchhayaat also?
