I.D. Replacement
Did you lose your I.D? Was your I.D stolen?
Do you need help with the cost of your I.D replacement?
North House offers year-round I.D. replacement for birth certificates and Ontario Photo Cards. Staff will assist with processing the application information and will provide payment for the documents. Expedited birth certificates will not be paid for by North House. Birth certificate replacements are available to both clients, and their child if required.
