If you cannot find your spouse, you will need to serve your spouse by either publishing or posting a notice that you have filed for divorce. You MUST have an order signed by a judge that gives you permission to serve your spouse by publishing or posting notice. To get the order, you will have to show the judge that you have tried in many ways to find your spouse.
Your best best is to have a attorney handle it for you, so the courts know that all steps were exhausted to try and find your spouse
Dear kristine93:
Greetings. Shadow is right and you will have to serve your spouse by publication. I would recommend that you retain an attorney to do this for you, as it can be a tricky process. Thank you.
