The Massachusetts Certification Vital Statistics Divorce or Annulment Statistical Form is a document used to record details about a divorce or annulment in the state. It is used to collect information on the parties involved in the divorce, such as names, addresses, dates of birth, and other relevant details. This form also collects information on the court that granted the divorce or annulment, the date it was granted, and the reason for the divorce. The Massachusetts Certification Vital Statistics Divorce or Annulment Statistical Form is required for all divorces or annulments in the state and is available from the Massachusetts Department of Public Health. There are two types of forms available: the Short Form and the Long Form. The Short Form is used for divorces that occurred before July 1, 2007, and the Long Form is used for divorces that occurred after this date. Both forms must be signed by the court clerk and notarized before being submitted to the Massachusetts Department of Public Health.
