Renew a child's Ontario health card without re-entering family details

Parents renew each child's health card on its own cycle, re-typing the same names, address, and guardian details every time. This guide is an example of storing each child's information once in hivi so renewals are fast.

Official form and source

Start from the official ServiceOntario source and always use the current version — form numbers and links can change:

• Service page: Renew your health card — ontario.ca
• Form (Central Forms Repository): Health Card Renewal – Child — 014-4258-82

What this form is about

The child renewal keeps a child's Ontario health coverage current, confirming the child's identity, residency, and health number.

Before you start: what to gather

• The child's full name and date of birth.
• The current address.
• The child's health number.
• A parent or guardian's details and any supporting documents (confirm the current list on ontario.ca).

How hivi makes it faster

1. Store each child once. Save each child's name, date of birth, and health number in hivi.
2. Reuse the family details. Address and guardian information are shared across children — hivi keeps them consistent.
3. Autofill the renewal. Use the hivi Chrome extension on a web form, or fill a PDF from your saved details inside hivi.
4. Review and submit yourself through ServiceOntario.

Why do it in hivi

A family's details show up on health cards, school forms, and benefits applications for years. Stored once in hivi — in Canada, with no third-party AI — each child's renewal and the next school form start mostly filled.
