Which states can I file birth worksheets for?

A birth worksheet is a pre-filled state filing artifact generated straight from a birth record — a draft of the paperwork your state’s vital-records office expects for a birth certificate, populated with the detail you already captured. You review it and sign it, so nothing is filed until an attendant has checked it.

The registry can currently produce filing artifacts for three states. More states are added over time.

Oregon Birth worksheet PDF
Vermont Birth worksheet PDF

The Washington parentage affidavits are only offered when the birth’s parentage determination calls for one — they aren’t generated for every Washington birth.

Open the birth record, review the pre-filled worksheet for the birth’s state, and sign it. See Logging a birth for how to capture the record the worksheet is built from.
