Ok..let me get this straight?

Ok, that makes sense. I wasn't sure if they give you 1 or 2. I knew the originals were sent back to you, but you never know how long the passport people are going to take!!

Maureen, I forgot to congratulate you on the pregnancy!! I know from being on these boards that you had been trying!!!

OH SHIT! I'm an idiot! I just sent my passport stuff in a few days ago and I forgot my marriage license! WTF!?! Now what?! Any ideas?

I'm sure they will send it back to you if they can't process it w/o the marriage license.

We got married april 22 and we received our certificate june 16. I think it depend on the minister.

Any ideal how to change your name on passport in Canada?

haha i just realized my stupid driver's license will of course expire before i receive my marriage certificate, so i'll end up having to get a new one TWICE! that stinks!

I received a temporary document from the minister during ceremony at the signing. Then, I received the official document (two marriages licenses) approximately two months after my wedding.

I took my temp certificate to the DMV yesterday and got my license with my new name. I called first and they said to just bring it over and they would take a look at it. I needed to change it to change my name on our checking account so I could cash some checks. It was kinda messy but worked out ok anyways!

So since we are talking about name changes I have a question.. I'm not officially changing my name until October b/c I'm in a DW in Belize at the end of October and I just figured it would be easier to change everything at once and not worry about my passport, ID, credit cards, plane ticket, etc not all matching up. So, do I go by maiden name until I change it??
