do you have to pay for a new birth certificate? I got my baby girls in the mail and not only was her father not put on it but they spelt the last name wrong.. so pissed because I know we filled it out right.
Maybe it varies state to state, but in Cali I had to amend the birth certificate. Fill out some forms, (and a certified copy form) have it notarized, and send it out correcting the errors and the reason why. They also told me that you can't change the original birth certificate, that you will have another one but with the correct information.
If u want a certified copy of the new birth certificate you have to pay $23, or it will just be in the "system".. I had them send me a copy, so I have 2 birth certificates for my daughter.
