Dear LJBH:

Greetings. First, my clients come first, so sometimes forum posts must wait awhile for a response. Now, you need to live in North Carolina for six months before you can be a resident of North Carolina. If you file an action here, he can always argue that you are not a resident. You can not file for divorce until you are separated for a year - so have you been separated for a year? Thank you.

Yes we have been separated since Apeil of 2000. He moved my daughter and myself out of our home and to another state. I guess I will have to wait the 3 1/2 months then to file then. Can I still do a no fault with child custody and child support in it, if he agrees to the terms of it??
Thank you.

Dear LJBH:

Yes, you can file for divorce, child support, and child custody all at the same time after you are a resident of North Carolina. Best of luck.

I moved to NC the first of June. I am wanting to get a No Fault Divorce. I do not want his retirement, alimony, or anything like that. I just want divorced, I want sole legal/physical custody of my child and child support. My question is do I have residency her in NC since I am a Military dependant, eventho I have not been here 6 months? I was told being a military dependant I do not need to prove residency?? Or can I go and file in my previous state? I just really do not want to wait another 3 1/2 months to file. By the way he is stationed in Italy, not in the states.
Thank You in advance.
