I was divorced somewhere around the 2004 timeframe. Thing is, I have no clue what state it was in, as she filed it. I have a few ideas, but they're all dead ends. I need to get specific dates, so I can apply for a passport.

Anyone have a clue on how to find those records?  Online search is useless, as every site says to go to the county where the divorce was filed. I tried a local divorce lawyer and the secretary was at a loss, as she never encountered that question.

State vital records are out, as you need to pay money for a search that may come up with no hits and I'm not wasting money.


In contrast, I found my marriage info and had a pdf file emailed to me within 10 minutes of searching. Divorce records? Forget about it. Spent hours looking with no leads.


I was married in Multnomah County, but their record search for marriages is a lot easier than looking for divorces.


Thanks in advance for any help.

Hired a private investigator. See if he come up with anything.

Shoot me your info and I’ll check Oregon

If you’re being chased by a police dog, try not to go through a tunnel, then on to a little seesaw, then jump through a hoop of fire. They’re trained for that!

A man's soul can be judged by the way he treats his dog.

Thanks, but the PI found what I needed. Trying to get a passport is a nightmare, but I'll need the divorce decree for the future.

The states and years I remember were off the mark, but now I have the info to get the official documents.

Sounds good. I have access to the documents if you hit a snag.

Thanks.

Hopefully I don't need to use your services, but will keep you in mind. I just sent out a letter and application today for the official documents. A whole $6.00. This time I'll make sure the decree gets put in the right set of paperwork, so it won't get lost.

Just got the decree in the mail today. 7 business day turnaround isn't bad at all.
