Register a delayed birth without re-entering your personal details

A delayed birth registration package asks for each parent's full name and address multiple times across its forms. This guide is an example of storing those repeating parent details in hivi.

Official form and source

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

• Service page: Register a birth (new baby) — ontario.ca

What this form is about

If a birth was not registered within the required period, ServiceOntario issues a delayed registration package. The completed package is mailed to the Office of the Registrar General in Thunder Bay.

Before you start: what to gather

• Each parent's full name, date of birth, and current address.
• The child's full name, date and place of birth.
• Supporting identity documents — confirm which are required on ontario.ca.

Confirm current requirements and processing time on ontario.ca.

How hivi makes it faster

1. Save each parent's details once. Add full names, addresses, and dates of birth to hivi.
2. Autofill the repeating parent fields. Use the hivi Chrome extension on the form, or fill a PDF from your saved profile inside hivi.
3. Enter the child's birth details yourself — these are event-specific.
4. Attach supporting documents and return the package by mail.

Why do it in hivi

Parent identity details appear across multiple forms in the registration package. Stored once in hivi — in Canada, with self-hosted AI — each page starts mostly filled.
