After reading many threads about the Passport requirements, etc, and denials of genuine birth certificates-- it happened to us.
Mrs U's Birth certificate was deemed "unacceptable"--even tho it was signed by the attending doctor and the hospital administrator, was dated, had both her parents names, and had the raised official seal. The reason for denial?
Because it came from the Hospital.
Which most Birth certificates issued in Md. in 1955 (and given to the parents) came from.
So now we have to go to vital records--where they will look up the exact same information and send it to us.
Fortunately we're not cruising anytime soon so time isn't a factor. But I see now how so many people can become annoyed at the whole process.
Now I am too
