    Default Citizenship Application Denied - Birth Certificate Not Translated

    Hello,

    I've applied for naturalization November 2003. On october, 2004 had a successfull interview, whichafter received a continuation letter (N-14) asking me to submit a missing birth certificate. I was born in Bulgaria.
    In less than 30 days I submitted the missing birth certificate, unfortunately without accompanying it with an english translation.
    Now September 2005 I received a letter of decision, denying my N-400 application. In this same letter I've been given 30 day time to request a hearing.
    Would INS accept it if I were to send back the hearing request with the translation of my birth certificate? Thanks.

    Regards,
    Kasim

    Default Failure to send translated birth certificate

    You should request a hearing, obtain a certified translation of your birth certificate, and consult an immigration lawyer in advance of the hearing so you know what to expect and how to best present your case.

    Hello,


    You should diligently prepare your hearing brief for submission to the USCIS. Certainly, have your birth certificate translated into English, like any other doc that is not in English.

    This reply is in the nature of general information, not legal advice and should not be relied on as such.
