Since I have not heard nothing but crickets about the statements above, I'll give them my plausible answer.
The "Date Accepted By State Registrar" says that the Hawaiian Health Department has received birth information from local doctors and hospitals that the baby was born in Hawaii.
The "Date Filed by Registrar" acknowledges a newborn but the information about the baby came outside of normal channels. Meaning that the Hawaiian Department of Health does not know about the baby's origin.
Be back later to see any comments....
I've only posted the answer to this like a dozen times already, so why not do it again.
Alvin T. Onaka, MD, is the State Registrar, but not that long ago, Onaka also became the Head of the Office of Health Status Monitoring.
Because of having two roles to fulfill, Onaka does not even see these paper COLBS or the requests for them any more. Now he has a staff member stamping his signature block, the date the COLB was stamped, and also the embossed Seal.
In other words, Onaka has not ACCEPTED a COLB since he became the Head of the OHSM -- but has the COLB "FILED" by the office staff.
