Your Notice of Intended Marriage is the first of five mandatory legal documents that must be completed a minimum of one months (and a maximum of 18 months) BEFORE you are legally able to be married.
So, if you legally lodge your NOIM on the 10th of August, you are legally able to marry on or after the 10th of September. If you lodge your NOIM on a date that has no equivalent in the following month, it moves to the next actual day. For example, if you lodge your NOIM on January 31st there is no February 31st, so you are legally able to marry on or after March 1st.
At Legals Only Weddings we’ll raise your NOIM for you within two business days of your of you submitting your legal information request. Then we’ll email you your completed NOIM, along with simple instruction on how to sign it and return it to us. You will be able to do this using just your phone, no postage required, from anywhere in the world.
When we receive the correctly signed form back into our inbox we’ll legally lodge it within two business days of receipt. Which means – depending on how quick you are to return the signed NOIM – it can around a week to raise, legally lodge it and send you your Visa Support Letter.
