How do I get a divorce if my husband is in another state?
If you and your spouse live in different states but want to divorce, it is possible to do so. Still, you need to meet the residency requirements of the state where you file for divorce. If your spouse filed for divorce first in a different state, that filing and that state’s laws usually control the proceeding.
Can you file for divorce in two states?
First to File When both spouses meet their current state’s residency requirements, then there will be two eligible states that have jurisdiction over the divorce proceedings. This means that the state in which the divorce is first filed will undertake the jurisdiction over the divorce proceedings.
Can your husband divorce you without you knowing?
You can divorce your spouse even if you can’t find him/her and even without their participation in the divorce proceeding, so long as a Judge is satisfied that your spouse had notice of the divorce proceeding. When your spouse is M.I.A., notice by publication may be your best option.
