By signing the request, you are indicating that you are the person who is the subject of the records, a court appointed legal

adoptee’s birth record.

HEIRLOOM BIRTH CERTIFICATES
$ 35.00 and includes one certified copy of the original certificate.
The Heirloom Birth Certificate is 11”x14” with a dark blue trim, bearing a silver and gold seal, depicting the view of the State
Capitol Dome. The Certificate will reflect the name, date of birth, place of birth, and parent’s names of the subject of the birth
record. Proceeds from the issuance of Heirloom Birth Certificates are used by the Child Abuse Training and Coordination Program
to provide training and technical assistance to judges, prosecutors and members of the multidisciplinary child abuse teams who
intervene in circumstances of child abuse.
WALLET SIZE CARDS Standard search and issuance fees apply.
The wallet size card is 3”x4” and contains minimal birth information and does NOT include parental information. Wallet size cards
may NOT be acceptable identification for passports, travel, Social Security, school enrollment or obtaining a driver’s license or
permit.
IF BOTH PARENTS DO NOT APPEAR ON THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE
If both parents’ names are not indicated on the original Certificate of Birth a complete copy of the birth record can be obtained only
if requested by the mother, the subject of the birth record if of legal age, or a person having legal custody or guardianship of the
subject of the birth record. If the certificate is required for “adoption purposes,” the signature of the attorney of record and a
statement from him/her to that effect is required.
NAME CHANGES
If a change to the name of the subject of the birth record has occurred as a result of legal action the person requesting the birth
record must identify in the place marked “full name at birth” the current legally altered name of the subject of the birth record, and
that name must agree with the information that now appears on the certificate. If a change needs to be made to the record,
complete the request with the information that currently appears on the certificate and attach a letter specifying the changes.
(Additional Instructions will be mailed once the request has been reviewed.)
SUBJECT OF THE BIRTH RECORD IS DECEASED
If the subject of the original Certificate of Birth is deceased the person requesting a copy of the deceased person’s birth certificate
may receive only a birth record marked with a notation indicating that the subject of the record is deceased.
