[us] Flagged Birth Certificate

Last time I tried (or well. my parents tried) to order my birth certificate for me it was flagged (i assume now for fraud). It was claimed in the letter that there was someone else with a very similar name and a different date (exactly one month apart), around 2011-12. One of my parents did in fact make a family doctor make a birth certificate document that mentioned that i was born in a random hospital in Mexico. Well shit.

Since then, I’ve fixed the issue and annulled the one in Mexico but haven’t really done anything in the US, and now all my documents have the same birth date and name. I live in the US, have a real ID, then I got an enhanced ID from another state, lived in different states (have moved), I have a SSN. Tax Returns and what-not. Parents even became citizens then (they were green card holders when I was born).

I recently had the itch to get a passport and travel, but since I only have one copy of my original US birth certificate it feels iffy to give it for a month away during the process. I’m also afraid of them just taking it away and claiming there’s work to be done for me in front of a judge.

Should i first get a lawyer and go to the judge? Can i just order a birth certificate online and see what happens? Would the police come to my house after ordering online and question me. How much does a lawyer for these situations cost.
