Do photocopies of original documents need to be certified?

[reybergs]

Hello all

I understand that all documents not in English or French need to be translated and certified, but for photocopies of original documents that are already in English, for example ID card, passport, diploma..I can't find anywhere stating they should be certified. Is it okay to just send the photocopy of the original in English without certification?

Thank you for any answer clarifying this!

They don't need to be certified unless it states it.
I found this link in another post. It's been the most helpful tool to help put together my application.
