Domestic Partnership

COUNTY STATEMENT OF DOMESTIC PARTNERSHIP:

Beginning May 6, 1999, couples wishing to file a Statement of Domestic Partnership may begin filing with the Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk's (RR/CC) Office. The Board of Supervisors approved an ordinance for the creation of a centralized registry for domestic partners at the April 6 Board meeting. The registry is intended to assist unmarried adult couples applying for domestic partnership benefits from employers. Couples wishing to register must both be 18 years of age or older and at least one partner must reside or work within Los Angeles County.
