Turnaround Times for California
are 3 to 7 business days. This can
depend on how busy the state records
office is at the time when you make your
application. We expedite every
application, BUT we do not own these
records, and we are dependant on the
records repositories to supply these California birth records. If you need these records
in a hurry, call our offices at
1.800.315.7678 and let us check to make
sure that we can meet your deadline!
Record Availability - California birth records are available from 1905 to

available, however they have to be
recovered from archive and the
turnaround time may be significantly
longer.
If you would like to rush your request then there will be an additional charge of $25.00.

obtain a copy of the Birth Certificate.

Delivery
Time:

by regular USPS mail, or they can be
faxed on request. We cannot guarantee

the load that the records office is
experiencing. County offices have
limited personnel and are often swamped
with paper work.
