Description
Canadian Birth Record Retrieval
We handle the retrieval of Canadian birth records from the relevant provincial vital statistics office on your behalf. For Quebec ancestors, we can also retrieve baptism records which serve as official birth records.
What’s Included
- Locating the correct provincial vital statistics office for your ancestor
- Submitting the official request on your behalf
- Follow-up communications with the issuing office
- Delivery of the certified document to you
Canadian birth records are a critical part of your citizenship certificate application. You need a birth certificate for each link in your chain of descent back to your Canadian ancestor.
Please Note: Processing times vary by province and are outside of our control. Quebec records may require baptism records in place of birth certificates for ancestors born before the 1990s.
