We were just informed that our birth certificates need to be less than a year old for our healthcare application. As an EU citizen (and my US citizen husband), this caught us off guard since we're working with a company for support throughout this process and wish we had known before moving...

• Is the 12-month rule now strictly enforced everywhere, or is this "agent lottery"?
• For those with US partners, did you have to get the new one Apostilled?

Any advice on how to navigate this without spending a fortune on international shipping and expedited fees would be amazing.
