I got married in April and just received my license back from the office to fill it out again after calling them over the course of several weeks and getting no real answer and whenever you call the marriage license office you never get an answer. I wish I would have gotten married in any other state. Very unprofessional. If you do want to get married in New Orleans I suggest getting legally married in another state and just having the ceremony in New Orleans. Dealing with this department has been such a nightmare. If I could give it negative starts I would.

This place literally makes me regret having my son in Louisiana. They don't follow COURT ORDERS! They are above a judge now?? And even more ridiculous that I ordered my son's birth certificate back in May and still waiting almost 3 months later. Louisiana government needs to get it together!

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Tina Martin | Sep 24, 2017
Nicholas Austin | Feb 25, 2022

Good luck. it's been 7 months since my wife passed and still don't have it. The first one, the social security number was wrong, so the funeral home I went through submitted a letter of correction to the state in September 2021. (1 month after her passing) I spoke to the funeral home this morning, February 10, 2022 and they're telling me it could take another 3 months. I was told back in October that it's going to take 6-8 weeks. Completely unacceptable. I'm gonna contact with my congressman on Monday if I don't get an acceptable update.

My husband adopted my son in May 2020. The social worker told us to send money to vital records with the address so we did. We still don’t have a birth certificate! What can I do about this?

Klara Ellerbe | Sep 23, 2021
Dwight Nicholson | Sep 23, 2021

I just recently ordered a copy of my birth certificate. I was told by the rep. to placed my order on their website (vitalchex.com). You have to answer all pertinent questions and pay for your order with your debit/credit card; no cash! Then, in 7-10 days; they will send you an email notifying you to pick up your order. If that social worker told you something different; i advise you to file a dispute with your bank or credit card company. And, also, file a complaint with vital records. Hope this help and sorry for this unfortunate setback for you.

what happens if you're still legally married in the state of Louisiana but your husband doesn't want to sign the parental affidavit and the child is not biologically his will they issue you are birth certificate with the married last name anyway

Ashley Jeblonski | Sep 24, 2019
Nichole Guidry | Sep 23, 2020

Yes because they will go by your last name and put your husbands name on the birth certificate but only if the father of your child does not sign the birth certificate papers at the hospital. I know because it happened to me! I put down that I was still legally married but separated for many years and that didn't work so put single you have to lie hope this is not to late??
