First of all, you do NOT have to leave the house. The court generally does not make either person leave the house unless there is domestic violence involved. So, do not let him bully you into leaving. I would suggest that you first file for the divorce and be sure at the same time to file an Order to Show Cause (OSC) for spousal support so that as soon as you two actually do split up, that you have means of supporting yourself. Good luck!
