Many Town Clerk’s Offices in Connecticut have begun requiring Appointments. This helps the couple’s save waiting time. Some of the Town Clerk’s Offices also have an Online Application ( Information) Form, with Links in the Vital Records section of their website- Filling this form out In Advance saves Time, helps ensure the information is accurate. – It Also means Double check the form before submitting Plus Checking the License forms as the Actual marriage license application process is done ( when you are asked to check).

Changes to the Marriage License are Far easier to do Before It Is Issued Than After.

I do Not have any Links for Any Town Clerks’ offices on this web site , because Those links are unique to Each Town Clerk’s Office

How Long does the License application process take? It has been my Observation that, If the Office is Not Busy , Plan on somewhere between 20- to 30 min , Provided there is good communication and few small If Any corrections are needed at any point along the process. On a good day, with the Online form having been completed, I have seen the process take as little as 15 min..

Keep in mind the Town Clerk’s Office provides many services besides Marriage licenses, Groton, Ct for example , also does Local Shellfish licenses , dog licenses, Birth Certificates as well as the myriad other services listed on their website.
