Answer: Although Arizona does not recognize common-law marriage that were established in Arizona, the marriage is considered legal when such a marriage is recognized as legal in the state where it was established. (However, if a resident of Arizona moves to another state or country to evade the laws of Arizona relating to marriage, the marriage is no longer legal in Arizona.)(http://www.azahcccs.gov/shared/Downloads/EligibilityManual/AEPM/chapter_0500/509_00_legal_marriage.htm) When a common law marriage was established in one of the states that recognize common law marriages (or was established during a period when such a marriage was recognized in that state), the marriage may be considered as legal in Arizona. An attorney may need to be consulted to find out how to recover items and monies. You can go to www.LawForVeterans.org for information on how to find an attorney.
