    32-403.  APPLICATION FOR AND ISSUANCE OF LICENSE. (1) Every county
recorder who shall have personal knowledge of the competency of the parties
for whose marriage a license is applied for, shall issue such license upon
payment or tender to him of his legal fee therefor; and if such recorder does
not know of his own knowledge that the parties are competent under the laws of
the state to contract matrimony, he shall take the affidavit in writing of the
person or persons applying for such license, and of other persons as he may
see proper, and of any persons whose testimony may be offered; and if it
appears from the affidavit so taken that the parties for whose marriage the
license in question is demanded are legally competent to marry, the recorder
shall issue such license, and the affidavits so taken shall be his warrant
against any fine or forfeiture for issuing such license. Provided, however,
that in the event either of the parties for whose marriage the license in
question is applied for is under the age of eighteen (18) years, the recorder
shall not issue such license except upon compliance with the consent and proof
of age requirements set forth in section 32-202, Idaho Code.
    (2)  Every application for a marriage license shall include the social
security numbers of the parties applying for the license.
    (a)  The requirement that an applicant provide a social security number
    shall apply only to applicants who have been assigned a social security
    number.
    (b)  An applicant who has not been assigned a social security number
    shall:
         (i)   Present written verification from the social security
         administration that the applicant has not been assigned a social
         security number; and
         (ii)  Submit a birth certificate, passport or other documentary
         evidence issued by an entity other than a state or the United States;
         and
         (iii) Submit such proof as the department may require that the
         applicant is lawfully present in the United States.
