Where the birth and marriage papers from Goodyear come from
For a child born in Goodyear, the original birth certificate the mission asks for comes from the Bureau of Vital Records of the Arizona Department of Health Services, in Phoenix (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records).
The Arizona page lists what a copy costs, and the requirement is on the mission’s birth notice page.
For a marriage license issued in Maricopa County, the county that includes Goodyear, the CDC’s directory for Arizona sends you to the Clerk of the Superior Court of Maricopa County (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records). The mission wants that certificate in the original, with an apostille.
For a birth, marriage or court document issued in Arizona, the apostille comes from the Arizona Secretary of State (HCCH list), not from the consulate.
