Hello,

I have applied to get birthday certificate but it might take 2-3 months.

Can I send my file without birth date certificate? and attach letter saying I will provide it later after 6-8 weeks.

I have School Leaving Certificate with me. Does that work instead?

Please advice.

Thanks,

Re: Birth Certificate

What will happen is that they'll return everything back to you and ask you to resubmit the application with birth certificate.

You have the option of sending a notarized affidavit in lieu of the birth certificate.

But it does not guarantee that application will be accepted

My wife didn't have a birth certificate as well and I had attached notarized affidavit in lieu of that but she was the secondary applicant in the application. I got the PPR request
