I know there's one of them waiting for me somewhere...presumably Register Office ?

My divorce was finalised in 2006.

I left it to the ex to sort out the paperwork , seeing as I was the 'injured' party, and we lived 60 miles apart then....now about 1,000. (I was notified by the court that the divorce had gone through).

A decree nisi is an order from a court which ends a marriage subject to a decree absolute at a later time.
A decree absolute is an order from a court which ends a marriage finally.

A decree absolute is an order from a court which ends a marriage finally.

so the nisa is not needed, it is the decree absolute which is the important one
