Quick Summary of most important info required to sign the 'NOIM':
(DO check the on-line version as well though!)
The 'NOIM' can be signed without all the information being given, but the missing info should be provided as soon as possible afterwards.
Bride and Groom: Your full name, occupation,
address. Birthplace.
- A birth certificate (if born overseas, a foreign
passport may be acceptable);
- If previously married and divorced, a decree
absolute of the divorce
(NOT just Nisi)
If divorced in Australia, this is obtained from the
Family
Court of Australia
- If previously married and your partner died, a death
certificate.
- If applicable, number of previous marriages,
and number of children
and D.O.B of each.
- Other Info required: (See info on this in the
NOIM
'Notes' 1# on page 2)
- Full names of parents. including mother's
maiden-name
and country of birth of both.
There is also a Statutory Declaration that must be
signed and appropriately witnessed before the wedding can take
place. It CAN be signed when we do the NOIM, but The Attorney General
has requested that we delay this signing until the week before the
ceremony, 'if possible.'
(I can show you this form when we do the NOIM) It can be signed at a final
rehearsal or even on the day of the ceremony as long as it is
signed before the event takes place.
Not much info required, just full name. It is all about you declaring that
you are of marriageable age and that you are not already married (or
know of any other impediment etc) I must do the witnessing for the Stat Declaration, (ie not the Chemist, as
is usual with Stat Decs.)
