Getting Marriage Licence

[Collie 122]

Here in Texas, both my husband and I had to swear an oath so both had to be present to get the license and sign the documents.

I agree though. If you are on a k1, take a little time to get used to the area and to living with your partner to see if you are really compatable. I came on a vwp and it was near at the end of the 90 days before we got married. That time together prior helped us learn even more about each other...including his little inability at getting socks to the laundry basket

Why are you in such a big hurry to get married? Come here, get used to the area and people and in the meantime apply for the SSN and then the marriage license. This all won't take more than a few weeks at best.

You are jumping too fast into this but its your choice. If all else fails, you can fly to Vegas and get married there - they probably have the loosest slot machines and marriage requirements! Good Luck

entered the US Nov 1, 2004

got our marriage liscense Nov 3, 2004

got married Nov 7, 2004

as of May 19, 2006 -- still happily married!

How about answering the question without too much personal opinion?? Sheesh.

Thanks for all the replies. We rang the local office and we both need to attend. I need birth certificate and photo Id and we need to turn up 3 days or greater beforehand as Zyggy said.

The nearest big town to us will be Escanaba.

You have to get the marriage license from the County Clerk in the county where the USC is resident. Does your fiancee live in Delta County... If not, you can't go to Escanaba...

In Minnesota only one person needs to be present to apply for the marriage license. My husband did not have to bring anything in to show proof of residency. He didn't have a SSN, so she just put a line through that space on the marriage license.

I would check with the state's requirements. I'm sure you can look online in their government section under marriage license.

I don't think we can be here to judge whether they are getting married too quickly. Surely it's up to the individual and their own circumstances? Most likely case is to be on their spouse's health insurance which is pretty damn sensible in my book. Looking at the op's timeline they have plenty of history behind them (pretty similar to mine) so if I was to judge I would say they're not rushing at all

The K1 is NOT a 'see if you like it' visa.

Good luck, Keigwyn
