The USCIS has such requirements for birth certificate notarization?



Hello everyone,


Today, I want to share an important document that needs to be prepared during the green card application process: the birth notarization. Additionally, I’ll also discuss birth certificate notarization, as many people wonder about the difference between the two.


The main difference is:

For those born before 1996, there was no official birth certificate. People only had something like a "Certificate of Only Child" or a hospital certificate. In this case, you need to apply for a birth notarization.


For those born after 1996, an official birth certificate is typically available. You can take this birth certificate to your local notary office to apply for a birth certificate notarization.


Now, let’s address a common question: How many pages does the birth notarization have?

Normally, the birth notarization includes the following:


A cover page;

The second page certifies the fact of your birth (in Chinese);

The third page is an English translation of the second page;

The fourth page is a statement from the notary office confirming the consistency of the Chinese and English translations;

The last page reiterates that the notarized translations are consistent.

Only this format is considered a qualified document and is recognized by the USCIS or the US Embassy/Consulate.


If you have any other questions, feel free to leave a comment below, and we’ll help answer them!


That’s all for today. Bye-bye!



大家好,


今天想和大家分享一下办理绿卡期间需要准备的一个特别重要的文件:出生公证。此外,还涉及到出生证明公证,很多人会对两者的区别感到疑惑。接下来,我们来详细说明一下。


两者的主要区别在于:

1996年以前出生的小伙伴们其实是没有出生证明的。大家可能只有一个叫独生子女证或者家里的医院证明。在这种情况下,大家需要办理出生公证。


而1996年以后出生的小伙伴们,一般都会有出生证明。你们可以拿着这个出生证明到当地的公证处,去办理出生证明的公证。


关于公证书,很多人还有一些具体的问题,比如:出生公证到底有几页?

正常情况下,出生公证应该包含以下内容:


一页封皮页;

第二页是证明你出生事实的中文说明;

第三页是针对第二页的英文翻译;

第四页是公证处出具的一份声明,表明中英文翻译内容是相符的;

最后一页再次确认前面公正的中英文翻译是相符的。

这样的公证书才算是合格的,也是移民局或大使馆认可的。


如果大家还有其他问题,欢迎在下方留言,我们会帮助大家解答!


今天就到这里啦,拜拜!
