When you plan to remarry why do you have to show previous divorce decree when applying for a license? |
[Edit] |
Because it is illegal to be married to more than one person at a time. You have to show proof that you are no longer married. This makes sure that no laws are being broken.
Answer
Depends on your state. You may just have to give the date of divorce on your marriage license.
