Hi everyone -

I'm working on filling out state readoption papers and I'm supposed to submit the adoption decree from Guatemala and the original birth certificate.

This sounds silly, but I can't figure out which of these documents is the adoption decree. Is it the same as the Protoculo? The attorney gave us a big packet of docs (all in Spanish) on our pickup trip and most have no identifying titles.

The other thing is that all of these documents are photocopies - I don't have an original among them! I have a sinking feeling about this.

Any advice? Thanks!
