    *****,

    We apologize for the delay in receiving your birth certificate and any inconvenience this has caused you. Unfortunately, due to the current high volume of applications at the ****************** processing times are longer than usual. We understand your frustration, especially considering the additional cost you paid for expedited shipping.


    While we strive to provide accurate estimates for processing and shipping times, unforeseen delays can occur, particularly during periods of high demand. Rest assured, we are doing everything we can to expedite the processing of your order.


    If you have any further questions or concerns about the status of your order, please don't hesitate to reach out to our customer service team. We appreciate your patience and understanding during this time.

    I applied back in December 2023 for a birth certificate for my grandson. Filling out application and verification was easy. Payment was easy too then I get an email to verify information on my daughter in law I sent that too which was verified. Here we are almost 2 months later and no birth certificate ??

    Hello, ****. 

    Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention, and we apologize for any inconvenience you've experienced regarding the delay in receiving your grandson's birth certificate.


    Upon reviewing our records, we found that your application has been placed on hold pending verification of additional documentation, specifically the father's copy birth certificate. This verification step is necessary to ensure compliance with the requirements set forth by the health department office, over which we have no control.


    We sincerely appreciate your cooperation and understanding in providing the requested documentation. Rest assured that as soon as we receive and verify the necessary information, we will proceed promptly with processing your grandson's birth certificate.


    Should you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to us directly. We are here to assist you throughout the process and ensure a satisfactory resolution.


    Thank you for your patience and cooperation.


    Best regards,

    I ordered a certificate through this company. They emailed my confirmation of the submission requesting the certificate from the local government. Phone representative quoted ***** weeks. I called the local government office, and I was informed that I can get a certificate much faster through the vitalchek system. I was also informed that the request thst VRO claimed to have sent, was not received by the local government office. Their reps refused to refund the $54 that they charged me for a $28 document, and hung up on me when I requested that they remove my debit card information from their systems. Won't be using or recommending this company of scammers in the future.

    Anon,

    We sincerely apologize for the frustration you experienced with your certificate order. Due to the high volume of applications at the ****************** delays unfortunately do occur, impacting processing times beyond what we initially estimate.


    Regarding your request through the VitalChek system, we understand that alternative options may offer faster processing times. However, please note that we always aim to provide accurate and timely services to our customers.


    We want to assure you that we take any discrepancy in our communications seriously. While we cannot control the processing times at government offices, we do strive to maintain transparency and provide accurate information to our customers.


    Regarding your refund request, we have reviewed your account and processed the refund for the overcharge. We apologize if there was any confusion or inconvenience caused during this process.


    As for your request to remove your debit card information from our systems, we take data security very seriously and will ensure that your information is handled in accordance with industry standards.


    Once again, we apologize for any frustration or inconvenience you've experienced. We value your feedback and will use it to improve our services moving forward. If there's anything else we can assist you with, please don't hesitate to reach out to us directly.

    Very easy to use and navigate. Made it easy to request my birth certificate from ********** while I live in *******. Was able to notarize my documents right over the phone via video call. Will definitely use again in the future for all my documentation needs.
