Also, they said we don't have to have witnessess come but I thought you need a witness to sign the papers with you?How is a marriage license only valid for a year?
By valid for a year, they mean that you have a year after getting the license to get married and record the marriage license.
Each state has different procedures, Nebraska might just require that the minister/rabbi/judge and the couple sign it.How is a marriage license only valid for a year?
A marriage license is the state's written approval to grant you permission to get married to your fiance. The marriage license itself does not mean you are married. If the website says that the license is valid for one year after issue that means that you have to ';get married'; within one year of the date of issue or else the marriage license is void. That means you would have to be granted another license in order to be legally married. You do not need a witness to get a marriage license; as I said, it's merely the state's approval of your marriage. You DO need witnesses at your wedding where the finalization of your marriage will be performed. You have to have an agent of the state or someone granted agency over you in the wedding who can perform the wedding in front of witnesses and will make it known to the state that your marriage was properly performed and the marriage is now valid in that states. Reciprocity laws will recognize your marriage in the other states giving you the same rights you would have (for the most part) in Nebraska.
You have to have your ceremony within the year to validate the license, then it it good forever- no renewing. Congratulations!!
all it means you have one year to get married from when you get your license .. other wis you have to reapply for the license
you have to get is signed by a judge or a priest
You just have to get legally married in that one year. The marriage will be till death do you part, if your pick the right partner.
