The only way you can file in another state is if your wife lives in that state or if you maintain a residence in the other state. This can get tricky; you should consult with a local attorney.

Your divorce must be filed in the state where the defendant resides. However, there are exceptions. If you have any more questions, feel free to contact my office.
