Federal employment laws for certain industries, such as aircraft manufacturing, already mandated that employers hire citizens, and many Americans did not have any proof of their citizenship status. Many Americans trying to get jobs in the wartime economy expressed frustration at this seemingly bureaucratic hurdle.

I have a wife and child and I want a job. During the period —, approximately 43 million Americans, nearly one-third of the working population, filed requests with their states to get a state-certified copy of their birth certificate. States struggled to keep up with the demand. In the years following World War II, employers, schools, and the federal government increasingly relied on birth certificates as documentation for certain activities and benefits.

Public schools required birth certificates for student enrollment. One of the provisions in the Fair Labor Standards Act of was that workers prove their age in order to enter into the labor market, which was a legislative victory reminiscent of Progressive Era reform efforts to eliminate child labor in the United States. By the s, Americans, primarily mothers, understood the importance of registering child births with their state and securing a birth certificate.

Birth certificates in the United States generally consist of the U. Standard Certificate of Live Birth application form, which states use to collect the data to issue a formal birth certificate, and the birth certificate document that states issue to individuals. Currently, the U. Standard Certificate of Live Birth looks like an application, with boxes asking for specific pieces of information.

The entire form is two pages long, and consists of 58 questions. A copy of the full application is available at www. The questions concern the newborn child and its mother and father. Concerning the child, the application form asks for a name, date of birth, place of birth, weight, height, and other vital statistics. Of the mother and father, the form asks for a name, address, and other racial, ethnic, and demographic information.

There are also questions about the health of the mother during pregnancy. The Standard Certificate of Live Birth must also be certified by a medical professional who was present at the birth or performed an examination. Typically, the Standard Certificate of Live Birth is completed by the parents of the child, then certified by a medical professional, and submitted to the state, county, or municipality, which will issue the final birth certificate document back to the individual.

The state-issued birth certificate document typically looks very different from the Standard Certificate of Live Birth form. There might be a watermark on the page, or signature of a state official. The information that is presented is generally basic, compared to the earlier application form. The names, addresses, birthdates, and occupations of both the mother and father are typically listed.
