I also got my bachelor and master in China. My suggestion is if immigration office ask for verified copy version, just do it. Or else, you may be asked to do it later. You just need to take the original one to the notorized office (公证处) in your city and they know how to do that.
Did you send Birth certificate, Chinese National ID and household registry book to CIO?
1)For birth certificate, I did not have one because there is no birth certificate issued to the people at my age. It simply did not exist then. I do not know if the new born baby will get birth certificate now in China. What I have is I got the public notary office to let them certify my birth date, birth place, and my parent name. They were translated and notarized with affidavit. Do you think it is ok?
2) I had National ID but it got lost and it also expired if I still have it. Since I have been in the US, I did not get chance to renew. So, I did not have "valid" ID per the checklist. If I did not submit it, will be a problem?
4) I am not sure I need to submit registry book.
a52411940. could you share the way to handle these requirements? Thanks, Happy Chinese new year.
