If either party has been married before, they must provide copies of the first page and the signature page of divorce or annulment papers, showing that the divorce papers were signed by a Judge and filed in the appropriate office.
If your documents are written in a language other than English, you are required to have them translated into English. If the translated document is not created by an official agency, the translator must certify that it is a true and accurate translation of the document, and that statement needs to be notarized.
If the name you are using is not the same name on your identification, you will need to bring official documentation for each name change (ie: court orders, divorce papers, adoption papers, etc.) to your appointment. Other forms of identification with the changed name are not sufficient.
YOU ARE REQUIRED TO BRING ALL OF THE ORIGINAL OR CERTIFIED IDENTIFICATION DOCUMENTS TO YOUR APPOINTMENT.
