How to apply to the registry office through Gosuslugi?

Legal marriage is one of the most important decisions in the fate of every citizen. However, in a state of law, the birth of a new family must begin on legal grounds. In accordance with the Constitution of the Russian Federation and the Family Code, the submission of a formal application to the registering authorities and the procedure itself for concluding marital relations must be carried out in accordance with the law.

According to government statistics, the number of people wishing to become husband and wife in our country is constantly growing, which is why the number of queues at the threshold of the registry offices is increasing. In these circumstances, it would be most reasonable to book the desired date of the wedding ceremony using the portal of public services.

The main advantages of ordering a wedding date through state services are:

• the possibility of submitting an electronic application through an online portal with all the necessary information, without leaving home;
• the user can at any convenient time and in a comfortable environment for him to choose which additional services for registration of his own wedding he needs: a solemn ceremony, outdoor registration, live music and so on;
• the bride and groom have the opportunity to choose their favorite registry office in their region, where their relationship will be registered.

The disadvantages of submitting an application for marriage through the website of State Services can be attributed to the fact that this option in our country is possible only if two circumstances are observed. First, the newlyweds are obliged to go through the procedure of mandatory registration on the most official Internet resource, and secondly, The account of the user submitting the electronic application must be confirmed in one of the possible ways, namely:

• after contacting the Service Center of regular users or the MFC;
• using the services of the Russian Post;
• using an electronic signature;
• on the official website of Sberbank online.

Whereas, during a personal visit to a civil registry office, a qualified employee will first check your documents and then issue a payment receipt. Thus, you will not incur any financial losses. It should be recalled that such a payment has a validity period and will not be refunded if the application is refused.

Today, the fulfillment of these provisions is compulsory, since for the execution of an electronic application it will be necessary to fill in all personal data, as well as to send an invitation to your future spouse, who must confirm and recheck it. After that, the completed application will be sent to the registration service.

On the official portal of state services there is a specialized document form F-7, designed to submit an application for registration of marriage.It must be submitted one calendar month before the desired date of the ceremony. In some regions, this period may be extended to two months. Such a length of time is provided for future spouses to think about the appropriateness of their decision, as well as prepare for the upcoming celebration. Moreover, if citizens decide to change their mind, the documents are returned to them without any penalties and other bureaucracy.

To legitimize the relationship in an accelerated mode, you must provide official proof of special circumstances, these include:

• spouse pregnancy;
• the birth of a joint child;
• if one of the future spouses will be sent on a long urgent business trip;
• the bride or groom has serious health problems that may be life threatening;
• a direct threat to the life of one of the spouses (the bridegroom is sent to serve in one of the regions where military operations take place)

Permission for emergency marriage is made by the head of the registration service if the relevant documents are available.

To submit an application to the registration authorities in electronic form, the same documents are required as during a personal visit. When filling out the document online, it will be necessary to take into account all the points required by our legislation.

Future spouses are required to have available:

• documents proving their identity (passport, military ID, certificate from the passport and visa service, if the document is on a replacement or a passport of a foreign citizen with an official translation into Russian);
• if the expectation of the marriage ceremony may be reduced, it is necessary to provide official confirmation of exceptional circumstances;
• a document confirming the dissolution of the previous marriage (if it had a place to be);
• birth certificates of the future spouses to indicate their nationality (check with the registrar officer).

All documents must be submitted in original form on the day of registration of the marriage to check the employee registration service.

By submitting an electronic application on the official services portal, people need to follow the following sequence of actions.

• Before submitting an application to the registrar office, you need to activate your account on the official resource. Next - open the tab “Children and family” and select the option “Register marriage”.

• From the proposed options you need to choose the most appropriate institution for yourself, where you will submit an electronic application for registration of marriage. This can be done and much easier by marking the address on the map. Here you should leave a note about the feasibility of a solemn registration.

• Next, choose the time and number you like to register your wedding.

• It is important to pay attention to the fact that it is not necessary to fill in the next column to future spouses. It must be issued to persons who have previously been in other registered relationships. Here are the names of the newlyweds after the registration of marriage. After the wedding, the husband and wife have the right to leave their premarital surname, take the surname of the husband (wife); use the double surname, which is formed by adding the bride's surname to the groom's surname.
• Here we indicate the following order of personal data: individual number of SNILS, date of birth, e-mail address of the bride (groom). Then we activate the special option “Invitation”.

• To the email address of the invited user should receive a letter in which, clicking on the link, you must confirm this application.
• The invited person should go to his personal account on the official website of the State Services, where he will confirm and recheck his consent to register the relationship. Further, the possibility to pay for the state receipt online will be available. Paying the service by bank transfer on the portal itself, users are given a bonus - 30% of the total payment. Currently, the average cost of state duty for registration of marriage in the regions of Russia is 350 rubles, and with a discount of only 245 rubles.
• After the state duty payment is made, your application will be redirected by the system to a certain state registration service. Here it is carefully checked by the staff of the registration service. If everything is in accordance with the letter of the law, the application will be approved and the date will be set.

On the wedding day, the newlyweds are obliged to arrive at the venue of the ceremony with the originals of all designated documents. The most important thing is not to forget the passport and the original receipt of payment of state duty.

Confirmation of the validity of the application must be received by the user within one day from the date of the official invitation. This is due to the fact that the booking of the desired number and time of the ceremony can be carried out no more than 24 hours.

There were cases when the user could not use the “Submit Application” feature to the online registration service. This can occur for a number of different reasons.

• The service is blocked temporarily or permanently by the decision of the administrative authorities of this region of the Russian Federation. Usually users are informed about this in advance.
• Due to technical work. In this situation, you need to wait for a while, and then repeat the application attempt.
• There were errors in the work of the official resource or your provider. You must wait until the portal is fully restored.

Many users are interested in the question of how you can pay the state duty on the website of state services. This payment is made on the portal itself after filling out the official application. It can be carried out by means of an electronic card of your bank or from an electronic wallet of one of the payment systems (the amount of the fee will depend directly on your operator). If the receipt is not paid, the application will not be sent to the registration authority.

In order to competently make an application to the registry office, as well as find out what list of documents is required, you can always use the portal of public services. That is why this resource is so popular among the population. However, it is worth noting that if there are doubts or complex individual issues, it is recommended to consult with a professional specialist. This can also be done online or by calling the state agency of interest. If we talk specifically about applying for a marriage through the state services, then all the visible amenities will be obvious to the naked eye, because the very procedure of filling out the document takes only a few minutes.

At the same time to enter personal data must be very carefully. Any typo in filling in the passport data may cause the registration authority to refuse to accept your application. In this case, the procedure will need to be repeated. With due attention should also be taken to the choice of the institution of the registration service and the date of the wedding ceremony.

If we talk about the feedback from people who used the portal of the State Services as a whole, it is important to note the general positive trend. So, people like this method of processing applications, because it is convenient and fast. However, like any system, the portal has a number of advantages and disadvantages. Its advantages include:

• significant time savings, because you can create and file a marriage application in literally 10-15 minutes;
• the possibility of booking the date of the ceremony;
• the user does not need to queue;
• quick response of the civil registry office staff to the application;
• the ability to choose any registration service available in the region of residence;
• You can choose additional services for the organization of the solemn ceremony of registration;
• opportunity to pay state duty directly on the portal of state services with a discount of 30%.

The disadvantages of such a system are:

• Mandatory registration procedure on the official resource of state services;
• the need to pay state duty before the verification of documents by the registry office employee (without this, the application will simply not be redirected to the registration service), while refusing to accept it, the fee is likely to be lost;
• as the customers themselves note, the warning system does not always work stably on the portal;
• Some functions of the site can be blocked permanently or temporarily at the request of the administrative body of state power in a particular region of Russia;
• Portal operation depends on the speed of your provider, as well as the stability of the hosting itself.

In any case, in the opinion of many users, the future of the State Services program is behind our program. Such a method of communication of citizens with public institutions is beneficial and convenient for both the clients themselves and for employees of organizations - it allows you to get rid of large crowds in the institution, and therefore saves both parties a lot of time and nerves.
