So the passport office doesn't accept CA birth abstracts as valid. I wonder how they feel about those issued by Hawaii?

BHO, call your office.

While we are on the subject.......has anyone seen Hussein’s passport records?

Effective immediately California birth abstracts such as the one shown below are not acceptable for proof of citizenship. Computer programming used in creating these birth abstracts shows the county of issue as the place of birth even if the person was born in a foreign country. Because of this California birth abstracts are not acceptable as proof of birth in the US.

Sounds like the reason why is a computer screw-up by California places their accuracy in question. If they correct the problem then will the feds allow them again?

No, but Stanley Ann's has been all over, especially the renewal where she had BHO removed -- as he was an Indonesian citizen at the time.
And then again, maybe Lieutenant Quarles Harris Jr. saw the passport.

JoeA,

Many thanks for the post !

You are absolutely correct, the govt won’t accept those abstracts, they want the real deal.

Passports, proof-of-citizenship for defense/govt jobs, security clearances, etc.

Just an easy verification.

Given the complete apparent lack of security standards on Hawaii COLB documents its hard to believe any function takes them.

An abstract contains the information about an event, but is not certified by the state (it would never be called a Certificate of Live Birth, for example). Does anyone even use abstracts anymore?
