If the DHS is requesting information showing legit marriage, it is standard and general to suggest documents like birth certificates of children. You might want to show the letter to an attorney.

There may be many reasons why they are requesting those. They may want to see who the father(s) of your children is and how that comports with the culture and values of where your husband is from, all to determine whether your current marriage is bona fide. You need to submit what is being asked in order for the petition to be adjusted.
