Thank you! Our marriage certificate is also written in both languages, Arabic and English. I'll use the certificate we used originally during the IR-1 visa process. It's what I had originally planned on but hearing this information from someone threw me for a loop. Thank you for that information, it definitely helps ease my worries.

Thank you. Did you go through a similar process? Someone here in my state mentioned something about having to do that and I had never heard of it before and Im not even sure if I would even be able to obtain something from my local court since the marriage didn't happen in the states.

Hello, I have a question that I can't seem to find an answer for when looking online. Me and my husband have been married since 2018. We were married in Egypt and had our marriage certificate notarized while there and it is bilingual and we did everything we could find would be needed while in Egypt. However, next year will be three years that my husband has been living here in the USA with me and he will be able to file for citizenship... I'm wondering if there's anything I need to do here in the United States to have our marriage certificate documented. Do I need to have anything done with the court/county clerk/etc. to have our marriage documented in the US or receive any kind of documentation from my state recognizing the marriage. Or would our foreign marriage certificate suffice as proof of marriage? Very confused about this as someone had mentioned they had to receive some type of certificate from the state instead of just their foreign marriage certificate and I can't find anything about this when searching online. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.
