ATTENTION:
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION
BEFORE COMPLETING APPLICATION

AVAILABILITY OF RECORDS
Before birth certificates are registered in our
state database and are made available for
processing copies, they are first registered in
the county where the birth took place. This
process is administered through the local
county health department (registered) and local
county recorder’s office (maintained).
Because of the time it takes the county offices
to send the records to our office and to get them
registered in our system, we encourage you to
request certified copies of birth certificates from
the county recorder’s office if you require a copy
within the first three months after the date of
event.
Caution: If you choose to send your request to
our office within the first three months after the
date of event, and we do not have the record
available yet, we will issue you a Certificate of
No Public Record (CNPR). Our office will retain
the fee for the search, per California law.
IF THE RECORD IS BEING AMENDED
Amendments to original birth records are
frequently submitted to our office to correct
errors or add information to original documents.
Copies of amended certificates may be
requested at the same time the amendment is
submitted. The applicant receives a certified
copy once the amendment is completed.
If you request a certified copy before the
amendment has been completed, you will
receive either: a copy of the un-amended
record, or a CNPR if we are not able to
locate the record.
If you know that the record is being
amended, and it is the amended record
that you want, please wait until after the
amendment has been completed before
requesting a certified copy.

CERTIFIED COPIES AND SWORN STATEMENTS
There are two types of certified copies available upon
request:
1)

Certified Copy
(authorized persons only)

If you are requesting a certified copy, you MUST provide
a notarized sworn statement (see page 3 of application)
declaring under penalty of perjury that you are
authorized by law to receive the certified copy (see
application for list of authorized individuals).
If you are requesting a certified copy and a notarized
sworn statement is not included, we will not be able to
accept your request for processing.
A certified copy can be used to establish the identity of
the person named on the certificate.
Note: Only one sworn statement is required for multiple
records that are requested at the same time — but the
sworn statement must include the name of each person
whose record is being requested and your relationship to
that person.
2)

Certified Informational Copy
(any interested person)

If you are requesting a certified informational copy, you
DO NOT need to provide a sworn statement.
A certified informational copy has a legend printed on
the
face
of
the
document
that
states,
“INFORMATIONAL, NOT A VALID DOCUMENT TO
ESTABLISH IDENTITY.” Persons who are not eligible to
receive a certified copy can receive a certified
informational copy.
Both types of documents are certified copies of the
original document on file with our office. Depending on
the exact year of event, some certified informational
copies will have signatures and Social Security numbers
redacted (concealed).

APPLICANT NOTIFICATION
Once your request has been received and
evaluated:
If your request is not accepted (e.g., due to
insufficient fees, insufficient information, etc.),
we will return your request to you with a letter
explaining what needs to be corrected; or,
If your request is accepted, we will process
the application and mail out a copy of the
certificate(s) you requested.
Please allow a few weeks to receive these
documents.
PROCESSING TIMES
To check current processing times for certified
copies of birth certificates, visit our website:
http://www.cdph.ca.gov/certlic/birthdeathmar/
Pages/ProcessingTimes.aspx
If you need your copy sooner, please refer to the
enclosed list of county recorder’s offices to
contact the county where the event occurred.
Because of the large volume of requests we
process at the state level, the county offices can
usually provide a faster processing time.
All applications and written inquiries should be
mailed to:

INFORMATION:
Birth records have been maintained in the California Department of Public Health Vital Records since July 1, 1905.
The name required on Vital Records (see Items 1C, 6C, 7C, 9C, and 12C) is the name given at birth, or a name received through
adoption, court ordered name change, or naturalization. AKAs (Also Known As) and assumed names cannot be entered as the legal

INSTRUCTIONS:
1.

ONLY individuals who are authorized by Health and Safety Code Section 103526 can obtain a Certified Copy of a birth record
to establish identity of the registrant (person listed on the certificate). (Page 1 identifies the individuals who are authorized
to make the request.) All others may receive a Certified Informational Copy which will be marked, “Informational, Not a
Valid Document to Establish Identity.”
Confidential Information on Birth Record: some individuals have special needs for a birth certificate that contains the
confidential information provided at the time the birth record was prepared. This confidential information may be used to
establish ethnicity, to provide health background, or for other personal reasons. For information on how to obtain a birth
certificate containing the confidential information, please refer to the Birth Record section of our website at:
www.cdph.ca.gov. Only specific individuals may obtain confidential copies.

Complete a separate application for each birth record requested.

Complete the Applicant Information section on Page 1 and provide your signature where indicated. In the Birth Record
Information section, provide all the information you have available to identify the birth record. If the information you
furnish is incomplete or inaccurate, we may not be able to locate the record.

If the registrant has been adopted, make the request in the adopted name. If the registrant was born outside the United
States and re adopted in California, mark the “Yes” box and complete the application with the adopted information. (If you
are requesting a copy of the original birth certificate, you must provide a court order releasing the original sealed record.)

SWORN STATEMENT:
The authorized individual requesting the certified copy must sign the attached Sworn Statement, declaring under
penalty of perjury that they are eligible to receive the certified copy of the birth record and identify their relationship
to the registrant – the relationship must be one of those identified on Page 1.
If the application is being submitted by mail, the Sworn Statement must be notarized by a Notary Public. (To find a
Notary Public, see your local yellow pages or call your banking institution.) Law enforcement and local and state
governmental agencies are exempt from the notary requirement.
You do not have to provide a Sworn Statement if you are requesting a Certified Informational Copy of the birth
record.

Submit $25 for each copy requested. If no birth record is found, the fee will be retained for searching for the record (as
required by law) and a “Certificate of No Public Record” will be issued to the applicant. Indicate the number of copies you
want and include the correct fee(s) in the form of a personal check or postal or bank money order (International Money
Order for out of country requests) made payable to CDPH Vital Records. PLEASE SUBMIT CHECK OR MONEY ORDER – DO
NOT SEND CASH (CDPH cannot be held responsible for fees paid in cash that are lost, misdirected, or undelivered).

§1653.5. It will be used in the administration of driver license laws and motor vehicle registration laws and to respond to requests
for information from the Franchise Tax Board for tax administration and from any agency operating pursuant to 42 U.S.C. 601 et
seq. It will be used to aid in the collection of monies owed in connection with failure to pay fines or failure to appear in court by an
applicant, and to aid in the collection of monies owed by an applicant in connection with Aid to Families with Dependent Children,
Child Support, and/or Establishment of Paternity.

the DMV and requires you to pay a delinquent state tax obligation.
r Organ Donor Statement — If you marked ‘Yes’ to register as an organ and tissue donor, you are legally authorizing the recovery of
organs and tissues in the event of your death. Registering as a donor will not affect your medical treatment in any way. As outlined
in the California Anatomical Gift Act, your authorization is legally binding and, unless the donor is under 18 years of age, your
decision does not require the consent of any other person. For registered donors under 18 years of age, the legal guardian shall
make the final donation decision. You may limit your donation to specific organs or tissues, place usage restrictions (for example
transplantation or research), obtain more information about donation, or remove your name from the registry on the Internet Web
site of Donate Life California: www.donateLIFEcalifornia.org.
r Veteran Statement — By marking the veteran box on this application, I certify that I am a veteran of the United States Armed
Forces and that I want to receive veteran benefits information from the California Department of Veterans Affairs. By marking the

SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION
Application for a Social Security Card
Applying for a Social Security Card is free!

USE THIS APPLICATION TO:
Apply for an original Social Security card
Apply for a replacement Social Security card
Change or correct information on your Social Security number record
IMPORTANT: You MUST provide a properly completed application and the required evidence before we
can process your application. We can only accept original documents or documents certified by the
custodian of the original record. Notarized copies or photocopies which have not been certified by the
custodian of the record are not acceptable. We will return any documents submitted with your application.
For assistance call us at 1-800-772-1213 or visit our website at www.socialsecurity.gov.

Original Social Security Card
To apply for an original card, you must provide at least two documents to prove age, identity, and U.S.
citizenship or current lawful, work-authorized immigration status. If you are not a U.S. citizen and do not
have DHS work authorization, you must prove that you have a valid non-work reason for requesting a
card. See page 2 for an explanation of acceptable documents.
NOTE: If you are age 12 or older and have never received a Social Security number, you must apply in
person.

Replacement Social Security Card
To apply for a replacement card, you must provide one document to prove your identity. If you were born
outside the U.S., you must also provide documents to prove your U.S. citizenship or current, lawful,
work-authorized status. See page 2 for an explanation of acceptable documents.

Changing Information on Your Social Security Record
To change the information on your Social Security number record (i.e., a name or citizenship change, or
corrected date of birth) you must provide documents to prove your identity, support the requested change,
and establish the reason for the change. For example, you may provide a birth certificate to show your
correct date of birth. A document supporting a name change must be recent and identify you by both your
old and new names. If the name change event occurred over two years ago or if the name change
document does not have enough information to prove your identity, you must also provide documents to
prove your identity in your prior name and/or in some cases your new legal name. If you were born outside
the U.S. you must provide a document to prove your U.S. citizenship or current lawful, work-authorized
status. See page 2 for an explanation of acceptable documents.
LIMITS ON REPLACEMENT SOCIAL SECURITY CARDS
Public Law 108-458 limits the number of replacement Social Security cards you may receive to 3 per
calendar year and 10 in a lifetime. Cards issued to reflect changes to your legal name or changes to a work
authorization legend do not count toward these limits. We may also grant exceptions to these limits if you
provide evidence from an official source to establish that a Social Security card is required.
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS
If you have any questions about this form or about the evidence documents you must provide, please visit
our website at www.socialsecurity.gov for additional information as well as locations of our offices and
Social Security Card Centers. You may also call Social Security at 1-800-772-1213. You can also find
your nearest office or Card Center in your local phone book.

EVIDENCE DOCUMENTS
The following lists are examples of the types of documents you must provide with your application and are not all
inclusive. Call us at 1-800-772-1213 if you cannot provide these documents.
IMPORTANT : If you are completing this application on behalf of someone else, you must provide evidence that
shows your authority to sign the application as well as documents to prove your identity and the identity of the
person for whom you are filing the application. We can only accept original documents or documents certified by
the custodian of the original record. Notarized copies or photocopies which have not been certified by the
custodian of the record are not acceptable.

Evidence of Age
In general, you must provide your birth certificate. In some situations, we may accept another document that
shows your age. Some of the other documents we may accept are:
U.S. hospital record of your birth (created at the time of birth)
Religious record established before age five showing your age or date of birth
Passport
Final Adoption Decree (the adoption decree must show that the birth information was taken from the original
birth certificate)

Evidence of Identity
You must provide current, unexpired evidence of identity in your legal name. Your legal name will be shown on
the Social Security card. Generally, we prefer to see documents issued in the U.S. Documents you submit to
establish identity must show your legal name AND provide biographical information (your date of birth, age, or
parents' names) and/or physical information (photograph, or physical description - height, eye and hair color,
etc.). If you send a photo identity document but do not appear in person, the document must show your
biographical information (e.g., your date of birth, age, or parents' names). Generally, documents without an
expiration date should have been issued within the past two years for adults and within the past four years for
children.
As proof of your identity, you must provide a:
U.S. driver's license; or
U.S. State-issued non-driver identity card; or
U.S. passport
If you do not have one of the documents above or cannot get a replacement within 10 work days, we may accept
other documents that show your legal name and biographical information, such as a U.S. military identity card,
Certificate of Naturalization, employee identity card, certified copy of medical record (clinic, doctor or hospital),
health insurance card, Medicaid card, or school identity card/record. For young children, we may accept medical
records (clinic, doctor, or hospital) maintained by the medical provider. We may also accept a final adoption
decree, or a school identity card, or other school record maintained by the school.
If you are not a U.S. citizen, we must see your current U.S. immigration document(s) and your foreign passport
with biographical information or photograph.
WE CANNOT ACCEPT A BIRTH CERTIFICATE, HOSPITAL SOUVENIR BIRTH CERTIFICATE, SOCIAL
SECURITY CARD STUB OR A SOCIAL SECURITY RECORD as evidence of identity.

Evidence of U.S. Citizenship
In general, you must provide your U.S. birth certificate or U.S. Passport. Other documents you may provide are a
Consular Report of Birth, Certificate of Citizenship, or Certificate of Naturalization.

Evidence of Immigration Status
You must provide a current unexpired document issued to you by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS)
showing your immigration status, such as Form I-551, I-94, or I-766. If you are an international student or
exchange visitor, you may need to provide additional documents, such as Form I-20, DS-2019, or a letter
authorizing employment from your school and employer (F-1) or sponsor (J-1). We CANNOT accept a receipt
showing you applied for the document. If you are not authorized to work in the U.S., we can issue you a Social
Security card only if you need the number for a valid non-work reason. Your card will be marked to show you
cannot work and if you do work, we will notify DHS. See page 3, item 5 for more information.

PROTECT YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER AND CARD
Protect your SSN card and number from loss and identity theft. DO NOT carry your SSN card with you.
Keep it in a secure location and only take it with you when you must show the card; e.g., to obtain a new

out your Social Security number to others, particularly during phone, mail, email and Internet requests
you did not initiate.

PRIVACY ACT STATEMENT

information may prevent us from issuing you a Social Security number and card.
We rarely use the information you supply for any purpose other than for issuing a Social Security
number and card. However, we may use it for the administration and integrity of Social Security
programs. We may also disclose information to another person or to another agency in accordance
with approved routine uses, which include but are not limited to the following:
1. To enable a third party or an agency to assist Social Security in establishing rights to
Social Security benefits and/or coverage;
2. To comply with Federal laws requiring the release of information from Social Security
records (e.g., to the Government Accountability Office and Department of Veterans'
Affairs);

STEP 3: If your Fee Waiver is approved, the DOJ will send you a preprinted “Request for Live Scan Service”

documents are being processed. Leave your full name and a telephone number in their voicemail so they can
