In the back of the clock on the mantle piece.

In the birth cert drawer.

Antar Bolaeisk

In the cloud.





Or at least that's where the storks store them.

Chucken

Mammies keep them.




In the press.

Hootanany

Hootanany

Nope says copy on the cert you are issued.

Chucken

The original ones are original.
Social welfare copies are copies.

























Have you looked in the press for the original yet?

What age were you when you got your birth cert?

Hootanany

Presumably they have backup copies at a separate location in the event of fire or whatever.

Hootanany

Its not in the press you only issued copies not the proper one

Chucken

Seriously though. This might help from The Dept of foreign affairs and trade:

Q) What do I do if I can't find my original birth/marriage certificate?

A)For fraud prevention purposes, we insist that all applicants submit the originals of their birth and marriage certificates. We do not accept laminated, certified or photocopies of these documents.

Hope this helps

Hootanany

Thank you but the ones issued have copy on them.

Ok. I went to the press and got out my blue accordian type folder and am now looking at 5 birth certs.
4 are original and 1 is a copy that was got for social welfare.

Snake

Well she probably lost it and got another copy which would explain why it says copy

A few years ago my son needed his birth cert. We didn't have the time to chase it up at the time so we got an online company to do it for us.

They were excellent - fast and reliable. We got the cert in about 2 days. It didn't cost much more than ordering the cert from where ever you order it from, Dublin I guess.

The cert didn't have "copy" written on it. My son was born in Ireland btw.

Hootanany

Is invalid on it?

Does she have one of those folders too? :eek:

Claw Hammer

There is no original birth cert. An application is made to register a birth. An entry is then ,made in the Register of Births. A copy of the entry is then issued as a certificate of birth.

It's in a register. The "original" cert from the register was given to the person who registered the birth.

And you were ripped off in the process if it wasn't the official HSE site... there's another site that charges twice as much as the HSE site... ****ing cowboys.

There is NO original cert. You can only get copies of your birth cert. The original cert is on a big computer somewhere in Roscommon.
