They need a birth cert with raised seal and a form of photo ID - License or Passport.

You need proof of age i.e. drivers license, and then either your birth cert or passport

It was great cause I dont have my Birth certificate and FH was giving me a hard time. So I am glad it wasnt a requirement - that was 'An I told You So' I didnt want to hear.

Both of our id's were accepted even though mine was Australian and Hubby's was British...

Re: Marriage License

This may be a stupid questions, but do they give the license right then? I've read something about a 24 hour waiting period so I didn't know if that meant you can't use it for 24 hours or you have to come back in 24 hours to get it. Thanks so much!!

Re: Marriage License

They say no less than 60 days before and no more than 30 days before. So pretty much somewhere in that 'I have 2 months to go' area.

Re: Marriage License

Several townships will tell you to bring different documents to show them.

Oyster bay township: 2 forms of ID and birth certificate $40

Hempstead township: 2 forms of ID $40

Oyster was giving us a hard time. The ladies at Hempstead were extremelly nice on the phone and so willing to help. NO WAITING!

Valid for 60 days from day it was issued. A minimum of 24 hour wait to get married after it it issued.
