Can I Get Divorced if I Don’t Know Where My Spouse Lives?

Yes. The Court has jurisdiction to go ahead and dissolve the marriage by virtue of your residency within the state. However, it cannot order your spouse to pay or do anything until it gets jurisdiction of your spouse. Once your ex is located and lawfully served with Summons, the court may revisit the initial divorce case and make its rulings on all of the remaining items.

Can My Spouse Stop Me from Getting a Divorce?

No. You do not need your spouse’s consent to get a divorce.

Do I Have to Live in Illinois before I Can File?

No. You can file for divorce on the day you move into Illinois, or before you move into Illinois, provided you are a continuous resident of Illinois for 90 days before your court hearing.

Can I Get Divorced in Illinois if I Got Married in Another State or Country?

Yes.

Must I Remain in Illinois until the Divorce is Final?

No. You can file for divorce on the day you move into Illinois, or before you move into Illinois, provided you are a continuous resident of Illinois for 90 days before your court hearing.
