Step by Step

Record a Divorce or Annulment

Policy and Principles

Membership records include a person’s civil information (name; parents’ names; date of birth; marriage information; date of divorce, if applicable; and places where these events occurred). If members see that this information is incorrect on their Individual Ordinance Summary, they may ask the clerk to have it corrected on their membership records. If official documents are available, a bishop may want to review them to verify the accuracy of a requested correction.

Procedures

From the member’s information screen, click the Family tab, and then click the pencil icon next to the marriage information. Click the Change Marriage Status button, enter the reason and the date, and click Save.
