Florida Divorce Records Free Database Online

By Christopher Evans


Obtaining government records is perhaps one of the most difficult and time-consuming activities for anyone. However, with the internet today, it is now easier to access public records and have it delivered to one's doorstep. As all states have adopted this procedure, obtaining a Florida Divorce Record, for example, is stress-free as you can make requests online. Traditional ways of calling and mailing the assigned agency is still applicable; however, to save time, it is only reasonable to make your queries online.

Just like marriage records, divorce records are made available through the Bureau of Vital Statistics in Florida. The Bureau's file includes information on divorces starting from June 6, 1927 up until today. If you are searching for files beyond that date, you might want to check with the Circuit Court Clerk where the divorce was placed. If you are not sure of the exact timeframe, you can send your request to the Office of the Vital Statistics.

Divorce records cost about $5 each and $4 for each succeeding request(s). However, one should order all at the same time to avail of the discount. For non-specific inquiry, (or when the exact year is unknown), a charge of $2 for each succeeding year is required. Processing depends on business days as well so it may take a few days especially if you send your request over the weekend or at the end of the week. Rush services and express deliveries (24-hour shipping) are also available for a minimal fee of $10 for both services. Rush service processing time is from three to five working days. For express deliveries, the person who requests the service should send a self-addressed stamped envelope together with the order and delivery fee.

For one's convenience, the Bureau includes three versions of the Divorce and Annulment application form in the website. The three forms are available in the English, Creole and Spanish languages. You can directly download the form from the site and then fill it up by hand or by computer. As much as possible, all fields should be answered to prevent any delay in the processing of the application.

People who request for the record should remember to indicate the complete name and information of the divorced parties especially the maiden name of the wife. Should one be unsure of the exact details, it is crucial that he or she remember the husband's name as the Bureau indexes the divorce records under the husband's name. To ensure fast and smooth transaction, complete details of the person requesting the information is necessary.

Many people have complained about how inflexible the Florida law system is, especially when it comes to divorce cases. However, once the annulment or divorce is finally granted, the Florida State is one of the fastest places to get one's divorce record. All the pertinent details of how to obtain one's divorce report is available in the Bureau's Marriage and Divorce Record website. If one is looking for faster and convenient services, online request is the most stressful way of doing it.
