Hi hopefully you will answer me.

My boyfriend is getting a new passport (he only had the passport card but want book) they said he need his birth certificate hence the reasoning.

My question is - he is in GA, but he was born in Milwaukee. Will using this website, we will be able to order an official certified birth certificate and all that information will be taken care of by this website where you will sent it to our house ? All we need is necessary information and then vital records do the work and we just get it in our mail right ? That is sufficient for passport application

I think so but I want to make sure .
