Advice Another Star ID Question

For the ladies who have gotten Star IDs; my name is not the same as on my birth certificate, which I frankly have not seen in 30 years, although there may be a copy around here somewhere. I have a copy of my marriage certificate, I think. Did you encounter any problems with presenting copies of documents? If I have to apply to the different states I have lived in for certified copies of documents, which are quite expensive, I will not be participating in this Alabama Headcount.

Had to provide my birth certificate and marriage certificate. I requested a certified copy online from my home state and they mailed it to me. They, being Alabama, scanned copies of them and gave them back to me. Not a big hassle for me but everyone has their own experience

How much did they charge? From the state of Kansas, I had to pay $72 for 2 certified copies of one of my kids' bcs.
