I have been trying since November to get my daughters birth certificate I finally ended up doing it online through vital check and I still have not received it and I did that on January 26 Nobody answers the phone you leave a message on it for them to call you back and they have yet to call me back

You can get your certified birth or death certificates same day. If you use a credit or debit card is the added $2.50 surcharge so a certified certificate is $27.50 they are $25.00 if you use cash. They didn’t give out uncertified certificates anymore

I have called three times to get a birth certificate and only get a recorded message that informs me they will get back within 48 hours. I have left my contact information Three Times and I HAVE NOT NEVER RECEIVED A CALLBACK. Really frustrated. Terrible customer service.

Kudos to vital records/marriage license staff. My CSR was extremely professional and went above and beyond. Called me back when he could only find my name listed. My copy went out the out the same day. Out of state... Appreciate the affordable ($2) expeditions service!
