where to file divorce paperwork
« on: October 30, 2009, 11:35:40 AM »
I really wasn't sure what board to put this on, so please feel free to move this if I'm not in the right place. 

My husband and I aren't doing very well and are considering divorcing.  We were married in Chicago about a year ago.  If we decide to do it, do I have to file the paperwork there, or can we do it in the UK?  I am still on a spousal visa and would be returning to the states ASAP.

Thanks for your help.

It may be simpler to have a divorce in the US, especially if it will be uncontested, since UK law does not permit divorce in the first 12 months of marriage.

Here's site with general information regarding divorce in the UK: http://www.hmcourts-service.gov.uk/infoabout/divorce/index.htm
