Question on I-130 application - please help!

[pyh]

Hi,

I am ready to file I-130 for my parents. Do I have to attach my original US citizenship certificate? Can I use a copy
of the certificate? If I use a copy, then, do I have to find a laywer to certify it or can I simply find a public notary?

Your reply will be highly appreicated.

never send any originals to INS. You will never see them back.

No Title

In that case, is it required to get a lawyer to certify the certificate or a public notary will do?
