Can a newly arrived k1 beneficiary get married here with just a Filipino passport? Of course the marriage application specifics are different in every state, everybody knows that. And, of course there are 50 different waiting periods, everybody knows that too.

But my question is this ...

What other documents are needed besides a filipino passport in order to apply for and get a marriage license? think about this please before you answer. I have heard enough Vegas jokes.. Thanks!

Just a passport id is needed. If she already has her SSN she can put that on the marriage license application, but it's not required if she doesn't have it yet.

K-1 visa holders are allowed to chase and get a SSN in visa name, prior to marriage, so perhaps your state requires a SSN card, it's easily gotten.

Otherwise, it really is state specific. Getting married in Minnesota? What other research have you done on that state's website?

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !

SSN is not required in any state. The license asks for an SSN, but that is for those that already have one. They will accept another document, typically the foreign passport instead. Call and ask your county clerk what is needed for a non-resident to get a marriage license. They are the ones that can tell you without a doubt what you need to bring in.

Go to the state of Minnesota (or county you live in, being the license is issued by the county) website, requirements are listed there, they vary, not all states have the same requirements.
