Well..

I have this question my fiancee coming to US. We plan to marry in las vegas.

To get the marriage certificiate what does my fiancee has to show? Nothing, how about me?

Thanks!

Google las vegas and when you are planning where you will marry there, they should also give you the paperwork that they need.. every state is different but given that they have so many wedding places there it should be pretty easy.

It varies from state to state but Las Vegas is pretty easy. If I were you I would call ahead and make sure to ask them what the need from you and your fiancee before they marry you guys.

Good luck,

Peter Miami

So what about when she arrives with the K1, does she get the social security number right away, because thats one of the requirements?

SO I can't marry her till she has a social security card?

I was planning to get married to my ex in Las Vegas, because we were both foreigners....I read somewhere that we only needed our passports.

Fortunately we never got married....I married my american husband in SF...and all I needed as a foreigner was my passport.

right from the website:

Social Security Numbers are required on the Affidavit of Application for a Marriage License. Please know your Social Security Number. Those without knowledge of their Social Security Number may be refused a marriage license. It is recognized that non U.S. citizens will not have a Social Security Number.

What website???

I am not sure of you what you are asking but it varies from state to state if you need a SSN to get married. We went and got my fiancée (at the time) her SSN before we got married even though we did not need it to get married in Miami, Florida.

A note do not go to the SSO until at least 10 days after she arrives in the U.S. because usually it takes some days to get put into the computer system.

Good luck,

Our state thing said you had to have a SSN but when I called the understood that he wouldn't have one yet and his passport with valid visa is all they needed. I would call the probate office in Vegas or whatever county (Clark I guess) to get the answer straight from the horses mouth

My husband and I married in Las Vegas and it was really easy. All they need were a recognized form of identification (e.g. passport, stateside driver license) and the fee in cash. The clerk did not require my husband to provide a social security number. However, I (USC) had to provide mine. Any other questions can be answered in the link in the earlier post by waiting-1.

Some states do not require a SSN then will use her passport.

IE PA does

but FLA does not - So off to florida we go - Nov 3rd is the day.

Call a wedding chaple in Vegas

Best luct

If you would have simply followed the thread you never would have asked that question, but you obviously you did not read the previous post where someone posted a link to the Clark County website! I followed the link at there was all the information one needs to have to understand what it takes to get married in Las Vegas.

Not meaning to be rude, but did anyone read the link provided by waiting-1 (and highlighted by fwaguy)??

It's all pretty clear. Sorry I'm grumpy but a litttle reading can clear up a lot of confusion.

Edited: LOL, fwaguy got grumpy before I did. But it does reiterate my point!

To both of you that posted about reading the link. The one that has to read it is the original poster, the rest of the people trying to help him do not have to read links. I am busy working and trying to help some VJ members like I have been helped. I do not need to sit down and follow links. If you guys have a lot of time on your hands and can do that more power to you.

Why I apologize, I didn't realize there was 'link etiquette' involved here. Sorry you took it so personally. I just think 'waiting-1' had answered it perfectly well on is own!
