Your Birth Certificate…You Never Know When You Will Need It!
Many people don’t have a certified copy of their birth certificate. You may have a hospital issued record of birth with your footprints on it or a plain paper copy, but neither of these are recognized as an official certified birth certificate. A computer-generated certificate that contains the State File Number is accepted as the official certification of birth and recognized as such by all agencies.
A certified copy of your birth certificate is needed for many things: obtaining a driver’s license and passport, applying for social security and social service benefits, and entering school or the military.
Certified Birth and Death Certificates are available through the Orange County Health Department Vital Statistics Office.
