Which Michigan immunization-record route should you use?
Use the Michigan Immunization Portal for your own record. Prepare a citizen MiLogin account and a clear photo of valid government identification.
The public portal does not return minor records. Use the pediatrician, local health department or official record-request form.
Contact the provider, pharmacy or health department that administered it. The identity-change form does not correct vaccine dates.
Try a legitimate former Michigan address or use the official Request to Change Information form.
An opted-out record is unavailable to ordinary MCIR users. Use the official rescission process to restore participation.
Search previous providers, schools, employers, military systems and the registry where each vaccination was administered.
Prepare the correct account, ID and address
The portal reads the identity details from the uploaded document and compares them with MCIR. A blurry image, outdated legal name or unmatched address can prevent retrieval.
Take a usable ID image
Avoid glare over the name, address, photograph, birth date and expiration date.
Do not crop the edges of a license, state ID or passport page.
Hold the camera steady and zoom in afterward to confirm readability.
The official portal tutorial says expired identification is not accepted.
Use a private Downloads or Desktop folder on the device running the portal.
Remove temporary images from public computers and shared download folders.

What to do when the portal says No Record Found
How to get a child’s Michigan immunization record
Do not create a MiLogin account in a child’s name. The public portal only returns the signed-in adult’s own record.
Request the complete Official State of Michigan MCIR record and ask whether every recent vaccine was reported.
A local department may print the child’s record, review outside proof and help correct the MCIR profile.
Include the child’s identity, your relationship, address history, current photo ID and signature.
It may already hold a provider-verified record or prior MCIR printout.
