Is a church wedding in Mexico considered a legal wedding to United States immigration?

June 8th, 2010 | by admin |
Superman asked:


In mexico, all citizens must go to a court to get a marriage certificate to make the wedding legal. Otherwise, it’s just a ceremony in the church. Does United States Customs and Immigration consider just the church wedding a legal marriage?

      You must be 100% legally married in Mexico to be legally married in the United States. If that means going to court then that’s what you have to do if you want it to count.
