Where the birth and marriage papers from West Covina come from

The mission’s notice of a child born abroad asks for the original birth certificate (the mission’s birth notice page).

For a birth in West Covina, it comes from the California Department of Public Health’s Vital Records office, in Sacramento (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records), and the California page has the fee.

In Los Angeles County, where West Covina is, certified copies of a marriage record come from the Los Angeles County Recorder (or its Clerk, for a confidential marriage), according to the CDC’s directory for California (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records).

For the mission, the copy needs an apostille.

The California Secretary of State is the authority that puts the apostille on a document from California (HCCH list), before it is used in Israel.
