I have a question about the application for my babys birth certificate It has a question that says reason certificate required?........Im a bit confused, It also says attention of if being mailed?.......I kinda have an idea but Im not too sure what I should write in the blanks and Im trying to avoid the Human Service Dpt return the application if for some reason I dont fill it out correctly. Please Help! Im not sure if it varies from state to state, I live In Houston TX, and they're also asking to include $23 along with the application, Im not sure if they want a check or money order...Sorry for my ignorance Im a first time mom and trying to adjust to this new mommyhood life!

reason required....I am the parent
yes a check or money order if fine, and do whatever it says for mailed because more than likely you are not picking it up in person. Go here for more info www.dshs.state.tx.us

the only thing that the hospital does for you is the social security card. but they should give you forms for the birth certificate. if you dont have them or lost them you can get new ones at your local hospital they will give them to you. after you fill them out you will have to get them noterized (spelled that one wrong) it cost like 10 to 15 bucks them send the forms off to the address on the forms with a check or money order. if you have a place close to you (unfortanatly i didnt) you can just go in and drop the paper work off there. it will take awhile to get the birth certificate back good luck and hope it helped

I like some others didn't mail it in. I can't trust the mail for something that important. I went in and applied for it and got it right there and then! Good luck!

i never mailed mine in, I went to the hall of records and got it in person. I don't trust the mail system with important things like that.

they have to say reason for birth certificate because if it was lost you put lost so just put newborn and for the other question go online to see what your supposed to do go to texas .gov or something
