DV 2022 All Selectees (Consular Processing - CP)

I would submit the one that was given to you at the civil ceremony and not the one you obtained after registration in country B. I think the registration in country B is simply stating they recognize in country B the marriage in country A.

But wait for more responses as some people know the process way batter than me!

Problem is, the initial one given in the ceremony was an Abridged. Back then, i didn't know something like Abridged and unabridged existed! To get an unabridged certificate now can take months.

Marriage date is the same in both

Regarding the marriage certificate, my wife (the winner) and I are from 2 different nationalities, got Married in country A, and then registered it in country B. So have a certificate from each country!
Do we need to provide the marriage certificate from the country where it was held, or as long as it's a valid certificate, it won't matter if presented from country B?

You submit the certificate from country A where you actually got married. The marriage from that country is an official marriage.

You are AF36xxx, right? Your CN isn't likely to become current in the next couple of months anyways, so you actually do have time to apply for the unabridged version.

The marriage certificate that legalized the marriage as of the date stated in your DS260 is what you need.

It doesn’t sound to me like country B is a real marriage certificate as such, just a recognition that the marriage exists by that country. Imo you should get the unabridged one from country A.
 
Is anyone here those who submitted before being asked and got mail from KCC for documents qualifying?? Please let me know

Send both, original and translated.


You can take some time and scroll through about 20 pages back. People have reported their timelines, when they send DS260/documents, when they received emails from KCC and so on.

Good day,
Im Mihail from Bulgaria. My case number is 2022EU11xxx.
I have a question:
My passport expiration date is in December this year. I completed, and submitted my DS260 with that same passport, because i used it on my initial application. However, i decided to renew it, and then proceed with sending both old, and the renewed passport, with the rest of the documents required.
My concern is that my old passport was perforated at the time of issuance of the new one, and on the scanned image of it two holes are clearly visible. Can this cause a concern at KCC?
Thank you

Hi, I'm Bulgarian too. It's completely normal. It will not cause you problem. The machine readable zone is perforated because your old passport is no longer valid.

@Ikshaf
i understand you are anxious and have questions
but you have nearly 30 posts of mostly one liners and many of them repeating questions, all in one day! To be quite honest this gets a little annoying after a while for other people reading the forum, especially as just about all of your posts are answered somewhere here already. So please take a deep breath, read back at least a few pages to see what people are saying and then if you still have questions, ask them…once. Thanks.
