Urgent Question For GC Interview
So i am panicking a little right now. We have our GC interview on Wednesday, and just realized in our possession we only have a photocopy of my wife's Birth Cert.
The original is kept with her family's in a safety deposit box somewhere that only her father has access to. So this might be difficult for him to get to tomorrow.
Is this a huge deal to have the original?
Urgent answer needed as obviously we'll need to move heaven and earth to get hold of it tomorrow if that is the case.
Thanks.

I think worst case scenario would be you are RFEd for the original (well, a certified copy).

The worst case scenario is that your application is put on hold until you provide the original. The delay might be inconvenient, but it's not really a big deal for most people.

Thanks for the replies.. panic averted. Turns out it's not going to be too tricky to get hold of the original tomorrow after all.

This is why I like the UK system where it is easy to have multiple certified copies. I have put together document packs for each of our sons with a certified copy of relevant birth and marriage certificates for them for potential future use. Also I have retained a certified copy of each of their birth certificates, just in case.

It's very easy to get multiple certified copies in the USA, too.

That's a very, very good idea.
