Florida does not acknowledge a separation agreement. You either file for divorce or you don't. I don't see where filing for abandonment will help her except she will want child support which will eventually locate you and ask for repayment of any funds that they have given her. In the state of Florida you can remain in the home untilt he date of divorce if the home is in both names.
