Marriage certificate not available - options?

[softwaretesting]

Hi,

I am applying for TRV for my parents. After I filled out the application online, in supporting documents it is asking to upload marriage certificate. However, we don't have their marriage certificate. I don't remember this requirement from when we applied for their visas 10 years ago.

Has anyone else faced this issue? What are my options now? Is it fine if I just submit their passports which have each other's names as spouses? My birth certificate also has their names.

I searched on this forum for any past post, however could not find anything.

Thanks in advance.

Explain that they don’t have a copy of their marriage certificate. Would include other government documents that show them as married like your birth certificate as you mentioned.

When did you apply for their visit visa? I mean was it recent and through new portal? I'm in the same situation. I hope alternative docs suffice.

Did you apply without marriage certificate? Any update on the file? I'm gonna apply and I hope alternative docs suffice.

Yes, & we just received passport request.

1. Marriage certificate was not available for them, so I had mentioned in covering letter that their names are mentioned in each other’s passport as spouse. Had not provided affidavit.

2. I had also submitted my birth certificate to prove my relation with them. However, my mother’s name was spelt slightly different in my birth certificate. I had mentioned in covering letter that they are both one & same name and is just spelt differently.

Yes, my parent’s applications got approved. I did this:

1. Attached their passports which included each other’s name as spouse.

2. Included my Birth certificate, which had their names

3. Mentioned in covering letter that since marriage certificate is not available, I am providing these two documents to prove relationships.
