http://humanist-society.org/for-celebrants/resources/marriage-laws/#new-yorkVery interesting site, but I'd like to know how true it is. When I did my research earlier I did not come across this. The city clerks office webpage, (which I would trust over this), says;
- Your Marriage License will be processed while you wait.
- You should carefully read your Marriage License to make sure there are no mistakes.
- You will take the Marriage License with you when you leave our office.
Does NY have a 1 day Waiting period between applying & receiving license? And then another 24 hours before it's valid..... I usually hear about IL law since that's where I'm from, which has no waiting period but the 24 hour period before validation.
