Is the Marriage certificate valid?


Question Posted Saturday May 7 2011, 11:24 am

A few years ago I got married blah blah yeah. Well let me get straight to the point. In the mothers name area of the marriage license/certificate thing, I put the wrong name of my mother. It is not her real name that I put down (by accident) and I was wondering if it would still be valid. I'm not to worried about having to get remarried to this male as we are no longer together, but it is something I would like to know this way I can figure it out and see what all needs to be done with divorce or possible name change. The state that we married in was Iowa state.

This goes under the heading, "clerical error." Don't sweat it. If you have any doubts still, see a family law attorney.

I'm sure your marriage is valid and if anyone is interested in drilling down to see if you put the correct name of your mother on the application, then you would just say you made a mistake. Some people outright lie on their license applications and nothing happens, even though that is perjury. Nevertheless, they are still married. I wouldn't give it a second thought.

I wasn't sure,. so i asked my mother what she thought about it,. She said you would have to search under state laws to see what the regulations for this would be wiether it be valid or not valid and wiether a divorce is necessary in your case.

Hope this helps:)
