Amendments to the Vital Statistics Act replace the previous requirement with a new process that allows citizens to change their gender designation on their government-issued identification to reflect their identified gender.
Also, an integrated gender policy between the BC Services Card program, ICBC driver licensing and BCID programs, the Medical Services Plan, and the Vital Statistics Agency updates identity-related services to enable citizens to change their gender designation on B.C. identity documents including: Birth Certificate, Driver’s Licence, BCID, Medical Services Plan client record, and BC Services Card.
You may apply to change your gender designation on your BC Services Card, driver’s licence, EDL, BCID or EIC. Gender is listed as “Sex” on all these cards, as well as your birth certificate.
If you are planning to change your gender designation on your birth certificate, do that first. The BC Vital Statistics Agency website has information on how to update your B.C. birth certificate.更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
