Hi,

I got married a few days ago and want to file my application package but I need the certified copy of our marriage license which for the LA county apparently will take 6-8 weeks to process and stamp.

Can any fellow Los Angelesians confirm this?

Should I file my application with my copy which only has the officiants stamp or should I wait for the countys stamped copy?

Thanks!

i waited for the countys stamped copy. i took like 4 weeks to assemble my package anyway so you can keep yourself busy while you wait for the marriage cert :)
