Single Status Affidavit: Fill & Download for Free

ok i wanted to apply for single status certificate and every one was wierd with their answers so here is the detail about how i got mine.STEP 1 - you have to get a notary document from any notary shop nearby and add these points,a) you are a citizen of india with passport number and your parents name and your residence addressb)mention that you are single and free to marry either in india or outside the borders and you can mention your date of birth that is necessary too.step 2 - go to the SDM office of your area and get the SDM stamp on the document, dont get tehsildar or executive magistrate or assistant of sdm sign on it because it wont be used or approved by the MEA(ministry of external affairs). it will take your day or 2 because these sdm mostly never at there office and the assistant or employees of government wanna give you a run around so they will just push you away. NOBODY IN THE GOVT OFFICE EVEN KNOW ABOUT THIS SO BE READY TO DEAL WITH UNEDUCATED AND UNETHICAL PEOPLE OF ERA WHO WILL WASTE YOUR TIME JUST FOR A STAMP. if they ask you how could i believe you that you are single then you need to show them a decleration from your parents that you are free to marry ( it is not necessary according to the law.step 3 - Google apostile services nearby and go to the company who does apostile and give them the sdm stamped notary document. this is the easiest one you will get it in a day. as MEA dont take docs personally so you have to go through a company. they cost around 75 rs to get everything done. dont get in the trap of people who say its for 4k or 7k rs coz it just cost 100rs not more than that. when i was outside india i reached out to these companies they said almost 7k-24k to get everything done. as well you can write a letter of authorisation to authorise your brother or family member to do everything for you if you are outside india.new edit - you have to ask from that country marriage administration for how long they consider it valid, in my case it was 3 monthsnew edit - sdm will not sign the affidavit if you put stamp from notary just dont get stamp of notary on it coz sdm have to notarised it

As I understand it, a Single Status Affidavit is not a government document but a document that you swear in front of a notary. You could also apply for a copy of your marriage license in Texas and use the rejection letter as proof that you weren’t married there.You might try contacting the US Embassy in Belarus for specific guidance.
