Dawn in the Erie county clerk office was nothing short of professional and incredibly courteous! She made my day with her stellar customer service, the least amount of anxiety I’ve ever felt in any official building!

Called office first and employee was helpful and pleasant. When I arrived to request a certified document, clerk was helpful and provided what I needed in less than 5 minutes. Overall a positive experience.

Could use a bit more accessible parking especially for people with mobility problems. Otherwise, staff was very friendly, polite and helpful. Bathroom and building were very clean.

It should have been mailed to you about a month or so before you expire. If it has already expired, you need to contact NY division of licensing. If you have not received the renewal paperwork, contact same NY as well.

It depends on where you child was born, if your child was born in Buffalo , you'll have to go to City Hall, 65 Niagara square, if not, you will have to go to the county clerk's office of your local city or Town.

You can use our website for that information. Go to ecclerk.erie.gov then click on Browser View. Search by your name using last name then first name. You may also limit your search to show only mortgages or judgments if you'd like by using the options provided. If you need assistance you can come into the office at 92 Franklin St. in Buffalo.

Can I get court papers notarized at the city clerk office? And if so, the person that served the paper can use his release I.D. As a proof of identification

Jackie Cayancela | Sep 24, 2019
Jackie Costantino | Sep 24, 2019

There are both Notaries Public and Commissioners of Deeds at the Erie County Clerk's Office that can notarize documents. The signor will have to show proof of ID before signing the documents. I don't know what 'release I.D.' is so I cannot say if that is valid proof of ID. We normally look for a driver's license or government issued ID which contains a signature.

Is there handicap parking?

Kathy's Cards | Sep 24, 2019
Jackie Costantino | Sep 24, 2019

There is parking all around the City but the Clerk's office does not have dedicated parking. There is some handicapped street parking on the Delaware side of the building.

It takes the State anywhere from 4-6 months to return the notary card. As long as your check has been cashed the renewal is on record and you can use your new expiration date.

Jackie Costantino | Sep 24, 2018

You have to know the owners name. Go to ecclerk.erie.gov using internet explorer. Click on advanced search which will download a small program to your computer. In the name search field enter last name (space) first name. Using F2 key will tell you if these judgments were satisfied. If you use your phone, use legacy search. Unfortunately, you will not be able to see if records are satisfied using this option.

My Great Great Grandmother came from Germany and met up with her fiancee in Buffalo New York and then caught a boat to Canada. They were married in May of 1855. Where would I go to get a copy of this record?

Jannette Van Deelen | Sep 24, 2018
K. Dixson | Sep 24, 2018

If they were married in Buffalo, the certificate of marriage would be filed at Buffalo City Hall. You'll have to make a request for it and given how old it is, it may take them a few days to find it.
