You can use the same form so long as your wife notarizes it.

If you served her with a complaint for divorce, you would need to prepare an Answer, which she would need to sign before a notary. This document would then need to be filed. Also, you need to prepare a Decree of Divorce which she would also need to sign before a notary and the same would need to be submitted to the court with your submission documents, your residency affidavit and the affidavit of your resident witness. If you have any questions, please feel free to call.
