Divorce
Is my being separated from my husband a year grounds enough for a divorce. Am I eligable for a waiver based on my income. How long does this procedure take. How do I go through with these procedings.

Re: Divorce
A one year separation is long enough to file for divorced based on voluntary separation. This means that both you and your husband agree on the divorce. A one year separation means you haven't lived together or had sex in one full year. You may file for a waiver of filing fees with you complaint for absolute divorce.
