I don’t think the guest house will count for the court unless it is somehow seperated from the main residence such as its own water and power meter and a seperate address (37 1/2 elm street) Then I think you could make a case for what you want to do. What ever you decide do not lie on the documents it will only hurt both of you in the long term.

Can you still be separated and live on the same property. My husband are going to separate, but being independent until our house would sell is not a possibity right now. We have a workshop/guesthouse and he says he can move in there until our house would sell. How do you prove to the judge that you have not been together for a year to get the divorce.
