What documents do I need to apply for after giving birth to a baby in the United States?

Go to the United States in Yue Mei time to answer your questions: 1. American birth certificate.

After the baby is born, the hospital will issue a birth certificate. After receiving the information submitted by the hospital, the Census Bureau will register the information of the baby, register it as an American citizen and issue an official birth certificate for the American citizen within about 5 working days. This certificate is a symbolic representative document of American citizens. The cost of American birth paper is $265,438 +0/ copy. It is recommended that mothers give more birth certificates to their babies.

Second, social security card.

The application for social security card is also completed when the hospital submits the birth information. You need to have a fixed and safe local address in the United States, where you can receive letters. The social security card will be sent to your address about half a month after the baby is born. Free of charge by the Social Security Bureau, the social security card will indicate the baby's social security number (SSN). No more than China's ID card. Americans go out by driver's license to authenticate their identity, and their economic life and credit are all related to social security numbers, so they only use passports to go abroad.

Third, Huang Ka vaccine.

When the baby leaves the hospital, the hospital will automatically provide a vaccination record card. This card is very important, which can prove to domestic doctors what vaccine the baby has been vaccinated to avoid omission or reconnection.

4. American passport

If the baby returns to China, he must apply for a passport. You can apply for a passport on the day you get your birth certificate, and usually you can get it after four to five working days. To apply for a passport, the baby and his parents need to be present in person (if the father is not in the United States, the mother needs to bring a notarized power of attorney; If the guardian only writes mom on the birth certificate, dad can be absent. You can apply for a passport with your birth paper and baby photos (50mm*50mm bareheaded photos on a white background).

Verb (abbreviation for verb) China travel permit

Once your passport is ready, you can apply for a China tourist permit. This needs to be done at the designated embassy or consulate general. It takes 4 working days to apply for a general permit. It takes 2-3 working days to apply for expediting. No need to make an appointment in advance. The embassy or consulate does not accept visa mailing applications. There is no need for the baby's guardian and the baby to be present, just provide copies of both parents' passports, baby's birth certificate, baby's American passport, baby photos and so on. The cost of a travel permit in the United States is $25, and an extra $20 is needed for emergency travel.

VI. Population Registration Certificate

Birth certificate, that is, legal birth certificate, is the most important document, which should be used to apply for passports, social security cards and other documents. Just like the hukou book in China, the birth manuscript should be handled at the local population statistics bureau, and it can be completed in about five working days after getting it from the hospital. The legal guardian of the baby must come to collect it in person. It is recommended to make more copies of the birth certificate, which is invalid, because the birth certificate will be used to apply for social security cards and passports in the future. If they are lost, they will be reissued.

Seven, three-level certification of birth paper

Three-level certification is simply the three-level certification of birth paper, which refers to the certification of American baby birth certificates by county (county) governments, state governments, China consulates and three-level administrative organs. The certification of these three levels of administrative organs is a fair certificate issued by the staff of their institutions to prove the authenticity of birth certificates, and each level has the endorsement of the next level. Our ultimate goal is to apply for China's consular certification in China Embassy and Consulate with the certification of county (county) government and state government. Consular certification is just a small green page posted on the back of national certification.
