Is Wisconsin a marital property state?
Wisconsin is one of the states labeled as a community property state. (The others are Alaska, Arizona, California, Idaho, Louisiana, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, and Washington.) In community property states, everything a married couple owns together is subject to a 50/50 split upon divorce.
Can I file for divorce if we live in different states?
Instead, you can only file in the state where you or your spouse meet the residency requirement. If you or your spouse just moved to a new state, you will have to wait until you can meet the residency requirement or you must file in the state where one of you can fulfill the residency requirement.
Which state has the easiest divorce laws?
If you’re looking into easy states to get divorced in, topping the list are Alaska, New Hampshire and Wyoming, with Idaho and South Dakota ringing in too. Wyoming has the U.S.’s highest marriage rates per 1,000 residents (29.7), and also the Nation’s 2nd lowest filing fee at $70.
