New Requirement for U.S. Birth Certificates
Dept of State ^ | March 23, 2011 | Staff

Posted on 03/31/2011 9:50:16 PM PDT by fightinJAG

Beginning April 1, 2011, the U.S. Department of State will require the full names of the applicant’s parent(s) to be listed on all certified birth certificates to be considered as primary evidence of U.S. citizenship for all passport applicants, regardless of age. Certified birth certificates missing this information will not be acceptable as evidence of citizenship. This will not affect applications already in-process that have been submitted or accepted before the effective date.

For more information, see 22 CFR 51.42(a).

To obtain a new birth certificate, see the CDC.

In addition to this requirement, certified copies of birth certificates must also include the following information to be considered acceptable primary evidence of U.S. citizenship:

Full name of the applicant
Date of birth
Place of birth
Raised, embossed, impressed or multicolored seal of issuing authority
Registrar’s signature
The date the certificate was filed with the registrar’s office (must be within one year)

If you have a birth certificate that does not meet these requirements, please see Secondary Evidence of U.S. Citizenship.

I thought this was a requirement from day one for a REAL hospital generated birth certificate.
Mine from Tennessee, 1944 has all of that info.

I wonder how that will work here in Chicago, where the mothers don’t know the fathers name much of the time.

Wait a minute. I see "parent(s)" so maybe they can leave one line blank.

That soetoro can get away with sequestering his birth certificate is an abomination. He can only be held accountable by the electorate...which, of course, would likely mean the martyrdom phase of his jihad against America. We´d all better hold on.

It was. It’s just that it used to be you could get a passport with the short-form BC. Not any more.

Why is that?
