律师的助手换人了。 新的助手认为我的出生公证不合格, 要求我们给出额外的证据。为什么中国的出生公证不行呢？ 她说的对吗？？？
Let me quote what the U.S. Department of State has to say about Chinese birth certificates:
Available in the form of notarial certificates, which are secondary evidence. Notarial certificates of birth (Chu Sheng Gong Zheng Shu or Chu Sheng Zheng Ming Shu) for persons living in or recently departed from China are generally reliable, but are best used in conjunction with other evidence. They are most often based upon an AHHR, (Household Record) which is easily susceptible to fraud, especially in villages. Notarial birth certificates for persons long departed from China are most likely based merely upon the testimony of interested parties.
The immigration service usually goes by the Department of State guidelines regarding birth certificates. Due to the Department of State guidance, we will have to advise you to gather further evidence regarding your and your wife's birth.
