Do I need to order a Divorce Certificate or a signed Final Order form from the BC Supreme court good enough

same question when I sponsor my future wife

Hello,

Thank you for sharing your situation and question with us.

In terms of what is required for you to both get married in the U.S., you will have to contact the appropriate authorities there for the details of the requirements.

In terms of sponsorship, you may want to look at some detailed information in our Settlement.Org How do I sponsor a spouse, common-law or conjugal partner, or dependent child living outside of Canada? article.

You will notice that once you download the application that the Document Checklist states that if you had previous marriages, a divorce certificate is required.

I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions and if there is any follow up to your question/situation.
