How to get Louisiana immunization records through MyIR
MyIR uses identity information to locate an exact match in LINKS. If it finds the record, it sends a verification code to a phone number already associated with that registry profile.
How MyIR phone-number matching works
| Situation | What MyIR does | What you should do |
|---|---|---|
| You know several possible numbers | Searches using up to four phone numbers. | Enter current and former numbers connected with providers or pharmacies. |
| One of four numbers matches | Uses the matching number for verification. | Make sure you can receive a text or call at that number. |
| The code goes to an old number | Cannot redirect the code to a different number. | Ask the provider or state health program to update the registry number. |
| No code arrives | May be waiting on an external call/text setting or no true match. | Check the Profile page and confirm the phone can receive outside calls or texts. |
| Your current phone is correct in MyIR | Account updates do not automatically correct LINKS. | Ask the healthcare provider to correct the registry demographic record. |

How to add a child to Louisiana MyIR
How to display vaccinations in LA Wallet
LA Wallet now displays all available completed Louisiana vaccinations—not only COVID-19—through its Vaccine Card feature.
Adding a child or dependent
Out-of-state, VA or missing vaccinations
Open Vaccine Card Assistance. Out-of-state providers cannot directly update LINKS.
Use the dedicated VA assistance route and follow any authorization-to-release instructions.
Refresh first, then submit the in-state assistance ticket with supporting details.
How to correct a missing or wrong LINKS dose
Begin with the organization that administered the vaccine. MyIR and LA Wallet display information from the registry, but residents generally cannot clinically verify and add a dose themselves.
| Information | Where to find it | Why it helps |
|---|---|---|
| Vaccine name | Provider portal, pharmacy history, vaccine card or visit summary. | Identifies the exact missing entry. |
| Administration date | Appointment history, receipt, claim or clinical record. | Helps staff locate the encounter. |
| Administering location | Doctor, pharmacy, parish clinic, school event or employer clinic. | Shows which organization should verify the dose. |
| Manufacturer or lot | Provider or pharmacy administration record. | Supports clinical verification when available. |
| Identity used at the visit | Insurance card, pharmacy profile or appointment message. | May reveal a demographic or duplicate-profile problem. |
How to request help from a parish health unit
LDH lists parish health units as an official backup for obtaining available immunization records. Call before travelling because hours, appointment procedures and identification requirements may differ by location.

What makes a Louisiana immunization certificate usable?
Louisiana school and daycare guidance relies on the Universal Certificate of Immunizations. For daycare and early-learning use, the certificate must be complete, signed, dated and supported by actual vaccination dates.
| Document issue | Why it may fail | Correct action |
|---|---|---|
| Certificate is unsigned | The daycare guide requires an authorized signed certificate. | Ask the provider or facility which authorized signature is needed. |
| Certificate is undated | Staff cannot verify when the certificate was issued or reviewed. | Obtain a complete dated certificate. |
| Vaccine history attached to a blank form | A history attachment with only a parent signature is specifically described as unacceptable. | Have the certificate itself completed with supported dose dates. |
| Only “up to date” is written | The receiving facility needs actual documentation and status evaluation. | Provide a MyIR, LINKS or provider-generated certificate containing vaccine dates. |
| Certificate is incomplete | The facility cannot determine complete, out-of-compliance or exempt status. | Ask the provider, MyIR or parish unit to issue a complete replacement. |
| Recent dose is missing | The provider may not have updated LINKS or the certificate. | Ask the administering provider to verify reporting and issue an updated certificate. |
Official certificate routes
A healthcare provider can print and sign an up-to-date certificate populated from LINKS.
A parent can print a prepopulated certificate, then confirm the receiving facility’s signature requirements.
A parish unit may help retrieve the record or issue supported documentation.

Final accuracy and privacy checklist
Louisiana immunization records FAQs
How do I get Louisiana immunization records online?
Start with Louisiana MyIR Mobile. Register or sign in, enter information that matches the LINKS registry, complete phone verification, and download the available record. If matching fails, contact the provider, pharmacy, parish health unit or MyIR support.
What is the difference between MyIR and LINKS?
LINKS is Louisiana’s immunization information system for enrolled and authorized users. MyIR Mobile is the public-facing service residents use to access available records stored in LINKS.
How many phone numbers can I enter in MyIR?
MyIR allows up to four phone numbers. Only one number must match the phone information stored with the immunization registry record.
What if the MyIR verification code goes to an old phone?
MyIR sends the code to the matching phone number stored in the registry and cannot redirect it to another number. Contact the healthcare provider or state health program to update the registry phone information.
Can a parent add a child to Louisiana MyIR?
Parents or authorized guardians can add children under age 18 through Add Family Member. Anyone age 18 or older needs an individual MyIR account.
Can LA Wallet show all Louisiana vaccinations?
LA Wallet’s 2026 Vaccine Card can display all available completed Louisiana vaccinations after the user links a Louisiana driver license or state ID and the information matches.
What should I do when a vaccine is missing?
Use Check for Updates in MyIR, refresh LA Wallet, and contact the provider or pharmacy that administered the vaccine. Ask whether the dose was reported to LINKS and whether a duplicate patient profile exists.
Can a MyIR record be used for Louisiana school or daycare?
MyIR can provide a Louisiana immunization certificate, but schools and daycare facilities may require the certificate to be complete, signed, dated and current. Confirm the exact format with the receiving facility.
Why might an adult Louisiana record be incomplete?
Older doses may predate LINKS, remain in paper files, be attached to different demographics, or have been administered through another state, pharmacy, employer, military, VA, tribal or federal system.
What if vaccinations were given outside Louisiana?
Obtain the official record from the provider or registry where the vaccine was administered. Out-of-state providers cannot directly update LINKS, so a Louisiana provider, parish health unit or LA Wallet assistance route may need to verify the documentation.
