    The following is an extract from the Help Centre:- "The ordinance status "Not Available" means that the ordinance information for the person is unavailable to view.

    "Not Available" can appear for many reasons. The most common are the following:

    • Privacy reasons prevent display of the ordinances.
    • The individual is still living or death information is not recorded properly.
    • The person lived before A.D. 200, and the ordinances are probably complete.
    • Additional approvals are required before you can perform ordinances for the person (such as for a famous person or Jewish Holocaust victim).
    • The person does not show a spouse or parents for sealing ordinances.

    Other reasons include the following:

    • A couple lacks a relationship defined in Family Tree or is in a **** relationship.
    • The record is about a Church member who died, and the death has not been recorded on his or her Church membership record.
    • One of the parties in a sealing is still living."

    My best advice is to follow the instruction previously given i.e. - "If you need more information about an ordinance that is listed as "Not Available," contact FamilySearch Support.

    John

    I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...

    [ And, I happen to be a Member of the Church ... ]

    Just in passing ...

    Perhaps, you are, NEW; or, in "Training" ...

    And, please do not take umbrage ...

    Please be, advised; and, aware ...

    That there ARE "Reasons", OTHER than, the above, from the "Knowledge Article", that you have provided; as, to WHY, the "Temple" Work, for individuals/persons. is "Not Available'; and, Users/Patrons, MUST contact 'FamilySearch' "Support".

    MANY Users/Patrons, are ALREADY well aware, of what you provided, from the "Knowledge Article".

    Hence, WHY, they contact 'FamilySearch' "Support", either, DIRECTLY (ie. Telephone/'On-Line' Chat); or, through, this "Community.FamilySearch" Forum, under the 'Category' of "Temple".

    In fact, the poster, of this post, 'Rocky', is now, a regular Participant, in this Forum, under the 'Category' of "Temple".

    MANY of the matters, so submitted, NEED, to be addressed/fixed (ie. Actioned), by 'FamilySearch' "Support".

    In MANY of the cases, the Users/Patrons, CANNOT, do ANYTHING, to address/fix the matters.

    I am sorry to say ...

    Unfortunately ...

    In the vast majority of case, what you provided is of little, if any, benefit, to the Users/Patrons, who submit posts, in this 'Category' of "Temple".

    Again, please do not be offended; nor, be discouraged ...

    And, please CONTINUE, to help/assist, where you can.

    That is what this "Community.FamilySearch" Forum is all about ...

    Users/Patrons, HELPING / ASSISTING, Users/Patrons ...

    I hope, that this may help/assist, somewhat.

    Brett

    @Brett .

    No umbrage taken. Like you, just another lowly user trying to help within an imperfect system. Community is continuously evolving and we have to continuously adapt. Hopefully my helpfulness to our guests / patrons / fellow users will increase with time.

    Kind Regards,

    John.
