Hi
I don't have birth certificate, generally we treat our X std marks card as birth certificate, since it will contain DOB.

Please let me whether this is ok or we need BC
 
You should get your birth certificate. If you are from India,

i think marriage certificate tells your birthday as well. if you are a single, need birth cert. i guess.

Marriage certificate doesnot say birth date...........however his 10th certificate shows the birth date.............place of birth only in passport. Does this cause any issues.
 
Folks, the birth certificate is REQUIRED of all persons included on the application, not just the principal applicant. This information is clearly indicated in our handy-dandy checklist.

Yes, a birth certificate issued by an embassy is accepted by CIC...

As my husband does not have a birthcertificate,is my application will be rejected ???? Is this happened to any one else.
 
They will request it, so you might as well apply for it now...
 
The marriage certificate only confirms that you're married, it doesn't serve as an identification

How are you proving your identification to CIC? Sometime if you are lucky you might get an easier VO and you wouldn't need to submit it. But if you get a VO that goes by the book and they have birth certificate as a requirement on the check list, they will ask you to send it in. Not sending it will delay your application so might as well send it
