Where do I send a birth certificate request?

Answer by  Brenda38 (34)

To obtain a birth certificate in the state of Illinois, the most convenient method would be to use the on-line order form and fax system available. This option requires you to complete the Order Form and provide copies of identifying information. Preferably, a copy of your driver's license is required.

If you were born in Illinois, you can mail, fax (217-523-2648), or make a request online to the Illinois Department of Public Health's Vital Records Office, or apply in person at 925 East Ridgely Ave., Springfield. It costs $15. If you were born in another state, try that state's analogue.
