If there are 2 consenting adults with no children and they separated in May 2009 do they have to wait the full 12 months of separation before they can divorce. We have an appointment with a solicitor in 2 weeks but would appreciated an indication before then if possible. Thanks for your input.|||You have to be separated for 12 months before you can file for divorce.
Once you file, they give you a court date. You then have to have the other person 'served' with divorce papers.
You turn up to court on the day.........the registrar asks you a few questions, and then your divorce will be final in one month and one day from the day you went to court.|||If they are married for less than 2 years, they have to obtain compulsory counselling, plus be separated for 12 months before a divorce will be granted. Either way, you can't avoid the 12 month separation period.
It's not even necessary to see a solicitor if you don't want to. Just be nice, divide everything in half, and file it with the family court. You don't even need to show up at court.|||I don't think you need to wait that long I know a relative from Melbourne who got it done it 4 weeks
