NYS has residency requirements of at least one year if you were married here, you and your spouse lived here during the marriage or the cause of action arose here. If he is a resident of Virginia, then it may be easier to do it there.

Where are you domiciled? Where is your spouse domiciled? Where did the causes of action arise? You need to give us a lot more information before we can answer this question intelligently.
