Public records such as birth, marriage, divorce and death are also known as Vital Records in the US. These records are open to the public and the Records Division should accommodate all requests. These records also serve as supporting documents as they can prove the person's identity, which is useful in some instances such as for benefit claims, social security and spousal claim. The records are usually available from the Health Department or Vital Records of the State although there are some instances where records such as divorce records in Indiana are located elsewhere.

Indiana divorce records are not available from the State's Division of Vital Records office and are available from the Clerk's office in the county where the divorce was granted. These records date back to 1795 up to the present. Each county has their own set of guidelines and fees vary from one county to another. The counties' records depend on the date when the counties were first established. Requests for divorce records are available either through fax, mail, e-mail or in person.

Access to divorce records is open only to those individuals eligible under the State Laws. As divorce records are confidential by nature, persons who have close affinity to the parties named in the divorce, their siblings, children and appointed persons are the only ones that can access the records.

The process of obtaining divorce records is simple and easy. In Marion County for example, researchers have to submit a request form, a self-addressed stamped envelope and payment to obtain the records. Each record costs $1/page and an additional $1 for the certification. For those who are not sure how much the request would cost, they can include a minimum of $5 in their request(s). Any balance will be refunded back to the researcher. To obtain the copy in person, the researcher can visit the county record division during working hours. They should present current/valid ID before any request will be processed. The processing time depends upon the volume of the requests and information provided by the researcher.

For those who require divorce decree in Allen County, they can request for copies of record from the Allen County Courthouse Records Management Division. To request for a copy, submit the request either through mail, fax, E-mail or in person to the Records Division. For those whose purpose is to use the documents for employment, court proceedings and social security purposes; remember to indicate that the copies need to be certified. Payment is the same as that in Marion County.

To make it easier for those who urgently require the records or need the records for information purposes, several online public records sites provide free public divorce records for basic info and a minimal fee might be charged for those who require a full report. This is definitely a time saver as processing time is shorter which reduces the time needed by researchers to finish their activities.
