Sent my sister the wrong birth certificate, not for our father as requested but for someone whose birthday & name were not even close. Took 3 months for the wrong one to arrive to Texas.
Sadly no they are closed to the public due to COVID ... went there this a.m for a replacement birth certificate. The officer/ concierge pointed me to a stand with all the apps for different certificates explaining I'd have to get it using mail in , phone or online. Good luck

will I need to make an appointment to inquire about a birth certificate? MTV will not accept my certificate from your office- which is authentic and true?
You only can make an appointment online. It took me 2 months to get an appointment appointment. I checked regularly and it was nothing. I even went down there thinking they accepted a limited of walk ins but they don't. You have to keep checking their site.
It was hard for me to get an appointment. I've been trying for 2 months and I finally was able to schedule one. http://appts.dcvsims.com/naoa/index.jsp

No☹️ but CORRECT maybe at DC General HOSPITAL if files are still available but not on a DC Birth certificate. Check hospital records for time of birth.👌👍
Yes...just dispute the charge with your banking institution. They might even issue a Provincial credit to your account. Call 311 to get more information on obtaining a REFUND from the DC government. I'm sure it would be easier to file a dispute with you bank. You can find more information at dc.gov👌👍

Social security number is not required as you will see from the site. I work at the Vital Records office. Social security card is one of several options.

This is much easier than searching from DC.gov. https://dchealth.dc.gov/vital-records
Birth certificate cost is $23. You can find this and more information at the dc.gov website. Just type in "birth certificate" in the search bar. You can order by phone or online through a Remote Service Provider for additional processing fees...
$6 by phone
$15.95 by mail and online
Fast and express service is also available but extra cost can be anywhere from $40 to $100 from fast to express depending on location of delivery.👌

There is no one who could really answer this question without knowing what GNC stands for...you can probably find that information by going to their WEBSITE at dc.gov and search birth certificates and/or records. 👌
No email account required and having one does not impact your wait time. See https://dchealth.dc.gov/vital-records for requirements. You can also see current wait times on the website.
Typically, it's faster of you come before 10am.
Metered parking and paid parking only. Union Station Red Line metro blocks away...Route 80 stops closest at the corner right at 9th and North Capital st.
No there is no free parking, I do apologize but there is plenty of offset parking in the neighborhood. Some of the most spots far as available space will be on K st going towards 4th right afternoon your North Capitol street entrance

Dmitriy Krantsberg | Sep 30, 2019
There's no form. You need to come to the Vital Records office (legal department) and tell them what exactly you need to amend.
Some things they can amend right there, for others you'd need to get a family court order first.
In any case make sure you bring all the supporting documentation with you.
