The first step is to get a copy of your marriage certificate. The certificate should have the details of when and where the ceremony was performed, and who was authorised to conduct it. You can then conduct the department in charge of marriages in whatever state or region you were married in and ask them to check the marriage license of that person. Normally you can only have a marriage certificate registered if the celebrant was legally authorised to carry out the wedding.

You should consult with a tax professional for specific guidance based on your situation.
