Report of Marriage

[Dimpna 7]

Another questions regarding Report of Marriage. What is the difference between the Marriage Record and Marriage Certificate? I do have Marriage Cert but for marriage record? I don’t know what they meant about that. Below are some requirments for ROM 

 

1. One (1) original or certified true copy and four (4) photocopies of the Marriage Record (original will be returned)
2. One (1) original or certified true copy and four (4) photocopies of the Marriage Certificate or Contract (original will be returned)

 

And do I need to notarized the duly-accomplished ROM form, If I am going to DC personally to process instead of mail? Thank you again! 😊

You mean the application we applied to get a marriage license? We did an application to have a marriage licence to get married.

After getting married you take the signed marriage certificate to the county to get it recorded .. we requested certified copies of that.

Ah okay. We just got married at JP by a district Judge. We just did our application at the county to apply for marriage license. After 3 days we got our licence and got married in 3 weeks. Then that was it. We received our MC after 3 days thru mail from the county where we apply for our licence. So i do not know where will i get the marriage record. Thank you so much!

You request certificate copies of your marriage from the county recorder (after you have your completed marriage license recorded)

I second what @Hank said as well. We got married at the courthouse as well. So it was just go to the clerk of court to get the marriage record.

My questions are, are these only the documents i should sent them? There is no BC included or what. I don’t know how many photocopies i should prepare and submit if by Mail. I’m sure above requirements are for personal appearance. And the Fifth set mentioned if i am applying for passport. I will renew my passport at Washing ton DC. So i guess, i dont need this anymore? Thank you

The number of copies of documents required is the same whether you mail ROM or do this in person.
