Common Law Birth Certificate

This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for Cale Wairepo to read a recent response and update the status.

From: Cale Wairepo

Dear Department of Internal Affairs,

I had send a message request to confirm if I was able to apply or receive a birth certificate under the common law for myself and my new born. Will I be able then to use the common law jurisdiction, and if so, will I recieve a card or information on this confirming my eligibility for the common law to be practiced under?

Yours faithfully,

Cale Wairepo
