HELPFUL HINT: It is a good idea when you are going somewhere where you will need these documents, to have at least two certified copies of each. Often you will be required to give a certified copy of these documents and may be turned away to get them if you do not have them with you (which can be really annoying when you've spent hours filling out forms and queuing).
