If my birthmother decided that she wanted to start looking for me, could she have the sealed records opened & my info given to her? Or does she have to go through the same stuff that I do in order to open the records in VA? Also, I think that I was adopted about 3 months after I was born, don't know through what agency & don't know what hospital I was born in. The only BC I have lists my aparents as my real parents. Is this the BC# that I need to get the search started through the courts? Thanks to anyone that can give me info on that.
It is my understanding that only the adult adoptee and petition the courts to have the records opened. I also believe that the birthcertificate no is the same on the original as on the amended.
You may want to contact social services since you do not know the agency which handled your adoption.
Good Luck,
Barbara
