Nevada Birth Records

Birth records are some of the most important records in the life of a human being. They are so important, they are almost always the first type of official record for a person, and often they are made even before the person is born. Aside from establishing the identity of the person so named within the confines of this single piece of paper, birth records are used at almost every public proceeding that the person so named would undergo. Not only does this establish identity, birth records also establish the fact that a person was once alive, even if said person is no longer amongst the living. Thus, taking this into consideration, it is not difficult to see why Nevada Birth Records are some of the most important documents in the life of a human being.

Birth records are generally considered to be public records because they should be available to the public at all times, but they are also vital records, which means that the security and the requirements that must be complied with before they are issued are considerably longer than had they been non-vital public records. The security is there because birth records could be used to facilitate identity theft and other crimes that could potentially affect innocent people.

Now, a person who is searching for birth records in the state of Nevada would best be directed to the official repository of such birth records and that is the Department of Health and Human Services, specifically, the Division of Public and Behavioral Health. Note, however, that the department does not carry birth records from before June 1911. If the records that are of interest to the searcher were made before that year, the searcher should contact the local issuing authority of the county where the birth occurred or to direct his or her search to the state archives.

A person requesting for copies of records at the department would have to follow a certain set of procedure and the procedure begins with the searcher visiting the official website of the department and downloading the relevant form from the website. Fill up the form as accurately as possible before having it notarized. The notarization is required because the birth record that would be issued would be a certified copy. Once the form is notarized, the searcher should then determine the required fee and to make a money order for the same. Copies of birth records cost about twenty dollars per copy. Once completed, all that is left is to send the requirements via mail to the department so that it may be processed.

A faster and more efficient search for birth records may be conducted through the internet, specifically, through online databases. Note that these records would not be certified, but they are the same as the data on various government offices and databases. The reason that they are not certified is because most of them are provided to the searcher for free in a faster and more efficient manner than doing an actual physical search. Of course, some of these databases are not affiliated with the government, but the benefits of conducting the search online should more than outweigh the disadvantages of the same, especially if the birth records are not going to be used for official purposes anyway.
