Today, I went to go get my driver's license, only to be told that I need a copy of my birth certificate. In order to get the copy of my birth certificate, I need a driver's license or my passport. In order to get a passport, I need a copy of my birth certificate or a drivers license. I have none. FML

Excuse me if I'm wrong, but isn't a drivers license and a regular id considered to be a state license? To obtain either you'll still need the same info. Atleast in my state it's so.

Get the BC application notarized by a notary public...

17- A notary has no say in whether or not a birth certificate is valid or not. So even if one did sign one, the DMV or whoever won't accept it because there isn't the states "seal".

Your birth certificate is a matter of public record. Anyone can go get a copy of it. Seriously. I had a friend from my home state go to the court house and get a certified copy of mine and mail it to me.

I phoned the city clerk's office of the city where I was born (where the hospital was, not where my parents lived then), they told me the fee (under $10), I sent them a check, they mailed me copies of my birth certificate complete with the city seal. A common request for them. Small delay and a small fee, but solved everything.

Not saying that I don't see your point, but am saying that it shouldn't be as difficult as the OP is saying it is to obtain their birth certificate.

Your parents have a license/passport, so they can get the certificate for you. Just sayin'...
