Does anyone know whether older copies of out-of-state birth/marriage certificates are acceptable by USCIS (Yakima, WA) for the I-600a? Has anyone had older certificates rejected? My copies are from 1989 and 1993 from New York, and I need to know whether or not to get new copies when I visit next time.
Thanks,
Jackie

I've had old copies rejected by the country from which we adopted. It's probably better to get freshly-stamped and printed copies for as many docs. as you can. You'd hate to have an adoption held up because some official was being a stickler.

Older copies should be fine for USCIS (with the I600a). I submitted my birth certificate from 1968 and it was fine.
You may need a more recent copy for your dossier, which I was able to obtain while my I600a was being processed. :cool:

If you do have any questions regarding a specific question about anything on your I-600A petition requirements, you can make an appointment through USCIS's website using the InfoPass thing for an appointment at the local immigration office and they answer questions pretty well.
