I had to send for my birth certificate a few months back so I could get an id. Now it has disappeared, my mother has been in the hospital for over a month and not doing so well so I can't ask her. I have looked everywhere a hundred times. I don't know where else to look and I have been still searching everywhere. Would anyone know how or where I could get a replacement? Maybe a website or something? Thank you everyone! This has just drove me nuts looking for it.

Go online. Look at the county clerk for the county where you were born. It will give you instructions for ordering certified copies of vital records. There will be a small fee.

You have to get a birth certificate from the state health department in the state in which he was born. There is no universal form to download.\n\nSo, go to the state department of health website, usually the section is called "vital statistics" and then follow the directions for ordering a new birth certificate.

I know that from being a transwoman myself, it is possible to get a birth certificate changed in some states through different procedures. She may be able to go through the legal system saying that the doctor made an error and force the record to be changed, but I'm not an expert on medical law. An attorney specializing in medical law would be the one to see about getting the doctor's error changed.

first thing is report it, also report it to the credit companys. you can get duplicate birth certificate at the court house.  i would start with the police, get a report number . but you cannot get an id with out a birth certificate,  you can also get a duplicate ss card. people lose them all the time.   the city where she was born will have all the informatiion you need.

Got to a police station, usually they have the records of people, and they have where they live, and how old they are. Or you can just lke contact your highschool, and ask them where she had moved to If they still have her records. Hope it works. Sorry if it doesn't.

That's a great question.  They did the same thing to me.  I even sent them multiple emails inquiring about the situation but never received a response.  I had the ID for several years and had never had a problem before.

I was one of the lucky ones.  There were 4 of us born at Fort Devens Army Hospital in Shirley Massachusetts.  Growing up I would celebrate 1 day with family and 1 day with friends.  If there was a 29th then I'd get 1 day only.  Now it seems like it doesn't matter if there is a 29th or not, my birthdays seem to last for a week.  I have had my ID torn up because the bouncer thought it was a fake.  He said there was no Feb 29.  The bar paid for a new ID.  The fun part is when I can say my kids are older than me.  By the way...I turned 10 1/2 this year.  I'll be 11 in 2008.  I sometimes get gag gifts from people.  Like when I turned 6 (24) I got a barbie doll and a card for a 6 year old.  All in all, it's just another day though.

Maybe if she checks with her local Job Center, they might have some tips for how she can get all she needs to get a job. They have connections that we could look for and never find. Also, she can call her local Social Services and see if they have anyone that handles these kinds of situations. Having a birth certificate is a good start, because she won't be able to even enter a tech school without one. It's unfortunate that she waited for six years before doing something constructive towards her future. I'm sure she's found that she can't get anywhere without an ID or birth certificate. By now, she could have been done with schooling, and working at a decent job. That's really the best thing someone with a record can do with their lives...going back to school. It often shows a future employer that they've done something constructive with their life as soon as they were released, and gives them a better chance at success. Hope all works out for her. <*)))><

OMG! I heard on the news that your identity can be used and there is somekind of shadow record for the person using your identity. Apparently it's nearly impossible for a consumer to find out who and how their identity has been used. Only credit companies, I think, and the gov. have access to ALL the files associated with a certain social security number. I think that they said that it would be an invasion of privacy for you to see the other person's records EVEN if it is on your social security number. CRAZY Huh?! it's true too! (*_*)

Do you know the city or hospital where you were born?\nCheck with that county's court house.  For a fee, the Recorder should be able to locate and mail you a copy.

Of course you can look for some clues over at  the Birth Registry centre. I don't what do you guys called for the registry centre that registers newly born babies' names. Go there and seek help! Since you've yout dad's name, why not try to post FREE advertisements online and photocopy a stack of info and paste them on the streets or lamposts. Hope someone knows and can help you.

Well Maybe you were born on the 16th but legally it says on the 14th on your birth certificate. This happen to me. I was born on the 17 of August but the hospital did not get the information until the 20th of August. So ethier the birth certificate department messed up or the hospital. And if I am wrong I can totally relate because I have two birthdays too. So legally on my Birth Cert it says the 20th but my mother says it was really the 17th..

Try calling Legal Aide and see if they can't get you a lawyer for free.  As far as a social security card, here in Tennessee you need two types of identification.  I am pretty sure if you have any medical records of hers that will count.  I hope this helps....I am truly sorry for what you are going through.

If you know all the places your mother lived you can find out the names of the counties and go to the county courthouses.  If you can show proof she's your mother, you should be allowed to get a copy of the records.  Also, did you check your birth certificate?
