The Nebraska Vital Statistics Certificate (Bureau of Vital Statistics Worksheet) is the official form from the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services used to report vital records such as births, deaths, marriages, and divorces in the state of Nebraska. It is an important document for many reasons, including providing proof of identity, family history research, and providing evidence of a legal name change. The Nebraska Vital Statistics Certificate is available in three types: Birth Certificate, Death Certificate, and Marriage/Divorce Certificate. Each type of certificate contains the necessary information to document the event and includes the full name of the individual, date of birth/death, place of birth/death, and other relevant information. The Nebraska Vital Statistics Certificate must be signed by a notary public or other authorized official to be valid.
