To Whom it May Concern:
According to NRS 127.140(2), adoptions for children born in the State of Nevada can be opened with a court order only. A court order requesting the adoption record to be unsealed should be directed through the court that initiated the adoption for the child born in the State of Nevada.
Once the court order has been obtained; the certified court order should include a request for a copy of the original birth certificate and any other documents (if any) enclosed in the file. The certified order will be sent to Vital Statistics directing the adoption clerk to unseal the adoption record(s).
We have enclosed an application to register with International Soundex Reunion Registry. Soundex does not charge for their service. If you are interested in registering, complete the enclosed application and forward to the address on the application.
Would you like an application to register with the Adoption Registry Division? Please identify your relationship to the adoptee, (i.e., mother, brother, sister, adoptee) for the correct application.
