“Official source located” means the desk found a government source in the master build or the current county review. It does not mean every filing instruction has completed a fresh audit. Audit dates appear only after that checklist is complete.

County CommissionOfficial portal located; filing audit pending

Baldwin County Commission

Use the Baldwin County Commission NextRequest portal for records maintained by the Commission. The portal expressly excludes Probate, courts, Sheriff, Revenue Commissioner and vital records; use those offices' separate routes instead.
