How long after you get a marriage license do you have to turn it in in California?
Once you've obtained your marriage license, the ceremony must be performed within 90 days. If not used within 90 days, you will need to reapply. After the ceremony, the person that performed the ceremony completed the marriage license and returns it to the Recorder's Office for filing within 10 days.

What should you do if you did not turn in a marriage license and it was thrown away over a year ago?
You Should Be Able To Get A Copy From The Clerks Office In State And County Of Marriage. Call They Will Tell You The Person To See. * A marriage license is not "turned in", either the couple are married or the license expires and is no longer valid. A license that was issued more than a year ago would by now have expired if the marriage never took place. A marriage license is not proof of a valid marriage. The document that verifies a legal marriage is the marriage certificate which is signed by the person who performs the ceremony (minister, judge, JP, etc.)and filed with the vital records division in the state where the marriage takes place. Likewise, a copy of the certificate can be obtained from the state's division of vital records in the state where the marriage was performed.

How do you get married in a Texas prison?
The prospective spouse goes to the marriage license department of the local courthouse and asks for a proxy marriage form and fills out their part and makes sure that they fill in the persons name that is going to stand in for the absent spouse; mails it to the person incarcerated. They in turn fill in their part sign it and have it notarized and send it back to the prospective spouse. Then at that time the prospective spouse may take that form back to the marriage license department and apply for a marriage license. There is a fee for the marriage license and there is only 30 days to get together with the person who is going to stand in for the absent spouse with clergy or JP. The clergy or JP will preform the ceremony as normal and then will fill out their part and turn it in to be recorded by the court clerk and the court clerk returns marriage license to the spouse who is on the outside.
Is your marriage legal if your licens was not turn in to the clerk of courts?
No. You have 30 days from the date that the license was issued to turn it in (or at least that's the rule here). When they give you the license, it's needing to be taken and signed. It is the judge's or reverend's job to make sure it's turned in and he/she could be in big trouble. If you don't turn it back in, how do they know that you didn't just change your mind about getting married? They won't. So there is no record of your marriage unless the license is turned in.
Minister forgot to turn the marriage license in and you got married 4 years ago in South Carolina now what can it still be filed or is it too late?
Some states have a common law marriage, where if two persons are living together for more than three or four years. Then they are recognised as being married. Now if you have the license then I would turn it in to the county clerk.
Am i still married if i didn't turn in the license?
Each state has its own procedures for issuing marriage licenses and rules for how soon the ceremony must be performed and the signed license returned. If you obtained your license and held the ceremony but just did not return the license, you may still have time to return the license before the license is void. I suggest that you contact the County that you obtained your license from to verify the status of your license. Many counties have online information regarding the procedure and important deadlines. Attached is a website link for marriage license information for all 50 states and most counties. Using the attached link, you can scroll to your county for specific information about your situation.
