Hi!

Just wanted to clarify one thing:

We got married in Canada and after awhile we ordered a Long Form Marriage Ceritifate which is a Certified Copy of Marriage Registration issued by Service Ontario.

Is a notarized copy of it good enough for CIC??

Thanks! :D

don't need a notarized version. a photocopy of the marriage certificate is good enough. they can verify the marriage from the ID.
 
Nice! That saved me some $$$!

Thanks a lot!! ;)

except that you may want to check your country specific instructions as to whether photocopy is accepted
 
Actually it says in a beginning of my Country Specific Instructions to send a notarized photocopy of documents, unless instructed otherwise.

And it does not say anything specific by the Marriage Certificate box. So I presume it needs to be notarized!!
It is ok though..

Thanks! :)
 
Its a Canadian marriage certificate i wouldn't have it notarized ,but thats my opinion .
