US Naturalization (N-400) can't locate prior marriage date

[moganesi 1]

Hi everybody, here is my problem. I am US citizen, and I am filing form N-400 on behalf of my wife, and I need to provide information about my previous marriages. I can't locate date of marriage , I remember year. I tried to contact registrar office for marriage licence copy, but they need date of marriage as well.

Contacting my ex is not an option. Date of marriage was in 1998. I have copy of divorce certificate.

What should I do? Is this info is so vital that application will not be processed without exact previous marriage date?

Thank you for help.

Michael.

Did you try to google your name, ex's name, year of marriage? When I google my name, my husband's name & year of marriage, the date comes up. Granted, our marriage was more recent (2011).

If you have a rough idea of the date, within a month or two, you could search the county records... some places will do this for you (if they've automated their systems) and other places will ask you to come in yourself and look through the books.

The divorce date and paperwork is what's really important... they want to make sure that your current marriage is legal and therefore they need a divorce decree. If you didn't have that I'd tell you to make sure you get your hands on it. But since you're missing the marriage date, they may or may not care... you should keep trying to get that date (and while you're at it, a copy of the marriage certificate) but it may not be a show-stopper.

Have you asked your mom, dad, siblings, grandparents, uncles, aunts, cousins, your best man, groomsman, or just someone who was invited at your wedding? Someone must have saved a picture with dates on it.

Thank you very much everybody, I actually found a wedding photo with a date on it. So I guess problem is solved.)))
