Required Documents

What documents do I need in addition to the petition?

Before submitting the petition to the tribunal it is advisable that you obtain the following documents, as a case will not be accepted without them:

1. A copy of your baptismal record dated within six (6) months of date of submission of application. This is available through your parish of baptism. When calling to request this, please ask that notations of sacraments be included.

2. An original or court notarized copy of your ENTIRE divorce decree.

3. A copy of the record of your civil marriage and a copy of your application for the marriage license.  Both of these documents can be obtained from the county court house where you applied for the marriage license.

4. Also include death certificates; and/or the decisions of previous marriages which have been examined by a tribunal.
