When a case has been certified, both by the Funeral Director and the Medical Certifier, it is automatically submitted by EDRS to the Funeral Home's designated Local Registrar for reviewing so that the case may be filed and certified copies may be issued.
If there is an error with the case, the Local Registrar rejects the case and wait for the Funeral Director or Medical Certifier to correct the information before it is submitted again.
