if i was born in Conneticut but live in california where would i call to get certified copy of birth certificate

Connecticut vital statistics office.

You may be able to get one from the city you're currently residing in but I'm no 100% sure on this. Your best bet would be to call the local county recorders office or stop by and ask. Regardless there's an application to fill out and a small fee (typically between $20-$30) to obtain the certified copy. Hope this helped.

The recorder from the county that you were born in.
