Can Sacred Heart process my annulment?

Yes, if you are a full-time resident and registered parishioner. Annulments must be processed in (a) the diocese where you live, (b) the diocese where your former (civil) spouse lives, (c) the diocese where you got married, or (d) the diocese where the majority of time of the marriage took place and/or where the majority of witnesses live. We will help answer any of your questions!
