Petition for naturalisation

[PippaCouch]

I have located my ggfather petition for naturalisation and it clearly states that my grandfather was already born in USA at this stage. It is also dated after my grandfathers birth date as stated on both birth certificate and the petition document. As this clearly shows my gfather was already born at this time do I still need to get a copy of his cert of naturalisation or would a copy of the petition suffice?

Thanks for your help with this.

When I applied, the Petition and Oath was sufficient, and it should be since, as you note, it contains all relevant information. That, however, was more than ten years ago. Were I to apply today, I would add the Certificate since the consulates seem more picky of late. Perhaps you can call them for clarification.

Thanks that's helpful.
