Lets a birth parent say whether they want contact with the adoptee (directly, through an intermediary, or not at this time) if the original birth certificate is released under A.R.S. 36-340(D). It is mailed to the Bureau of Vital Records in Phoenix.

Who can use this form

  • The form asks birth parents to give their name as it appears on the child's original (pre-adoption) birth certificate.

What to send with it

  • The completed form.
  • It can be filed with the finalized adoption order. If it is not, it can be mailed to the Bureau of Vital Records later.
  • To change the preference later, file an amended (new) contact preference form.
