The process for the passport was fast, make sure that in your photos your hair doesn't cover your face or/and ears. Bring all your documents and chance for parkmeters if you go to the Downtown office. Make an appointment online.

My wife and I got married April 8th of 2017, we were not able to mail in our signed marriage certificate until a few months later. Its been about 4 months since we mailed it in. How do we know it has been accepted by the state? how long does it take?

Kianna Christensen | Oct 20, 2018
Phoenix Wedding Minister | Oct 20, 2019

It takes 4 to 6 weeks to officially record your license. You can call down to the Marriage License Division give them the number on the top copy to see if it has been recorded. It is always a good idea to pay for the Certified Copy in advance. Of you paid for the Certified Copy it should be received by mail in 6 weeks. You will mot receive a copy by mail unless you pay for the Certified Copy.

at the Maricopa County Clerk of Superior Court, we maintain the records of court proceedings, and issue marriage licenses, and help issue US Passports. We do not perform the duties of the court. to get a civil marriage, that would be across the street, at 620 W Jackson street, at the downtown Justice Center. civil marriages are performed after 430pm there. bring 2 witnesses with you. cost for the license ranges from 83.00 to 115.00 depending on what options you want. then the ceremony across the street is about another 85.00 paid to the court.

the clerk of court in downtown Phx is directly across the street from the justice center. so you can get your license at the clerk's office, and walk across the street to the justice center to tie the knot. I would, however, call the justice center and make an appointment with a judge first.
