Format for non-availability of birth certificate letter
Question details
I received an RFE for the delayed Birth Certificate Registration, since I would not be able to provide the original birth certificate from the birth year, what are the other options I can look into to receive the letter from the municipal authorities, is there any format I would need to get the letter from the municipal office.
There is no specific format for a non-availability certificate from the local administration. It can be a letter with the official stamp, a letter on their letterhead, or a specific form that the local administrations have created for their own use. You should get one.

Success in responding to an I-129F RFE
We assisted our client in filing an I-129F petition to bring his fiancee to the U.S. in anticipation of their upcoming marriage in the U.S. On Form I-129F the petitioner answered “yes” to the question: “Have you ever been arrested, cited, charged, indicted, convicted, fined, or imprisoned for breaking or violating any law or ordinance in any country, excluding traffic violations (unless a traffic violation was alcohol-or drug-related or involved a fine of $500 or more)?”. We included reference to that issue in the filing.
Status
The petition was subsequently approved.
