Another "not my first time here, but first Google Review" for this place! First all, beautiful building, structure, and history. Worst of all, this place has signs everywhere and online stating they close at 5pm on Wednesdays. Today is Wednesday, October 5 and is not a holiday, yet when we arrive at 4pm, they close an hour early. I am a Chicagoan through and through and love my city. Chicago Government needs better people. They are paid well with great benefits but do not care and will take your money and run.

I relocated to Florida back in March of this year. I’ve ordered my birth certificate twice through the vitals check website. Both times it said it shipped. Both times it never arrived. Ordered in early April and ordered back in early August. The pattter supposedly shipped on August 31st. Today is September 30th and still no birth certificate.
