Separate the city from the state
NYC Health covers birth certificates for the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens and Staten Island. A birth elsewhere in New York State is outside that city service. Keep the borough or locality from your record to verify the birthplace.
Check the form when looking for time
NYC Health distinguishes Short Form from Long Form certificates and associates time-of-birth information with the Long Form. Consult its official page before making a request. We do not obtain certificates or promise that a particular copy resolves missing information.
A practical form check
Separate day, month and year before entering them; confirm the order of an ambiguous date such as 04/05. A time of 7:15 PM is 19:15. Use your birthplace even while travelling, and do not convert the time to UTC yourself.
What the reading can show
Mark the time as unknown if you do not know it; do not replace it with noon. The current reading shows positions and symbols, without calculating an ascendant or houses. Read the sky manual and prepare your map online. This guide does not advertise a local office or practitioner.
