How long after a birth occurs is it filed with the Pennsylvania Division of Vital Records?
Most births are filed electronically; therefore, the birth record is usually available for issuance by the Division of Vital Records within one or two days after transmission by the hospital. A complimentary certified copy is provided to the parent(s) of newborns, free of charge, shortly after the record is filed. However, if you have not received the free certified copy within three months from the date of your child’s birth, please call (724) 656-3100.
