You can be separated one day and file for a divorce in Florida. Florida is a No-Fault state which means you can file for divorce at any time for any reason and the other person can't do anything about it.
You have to live in Florida for 6 months to have qualified residency for divorce. Only one of the spouses HAS to live in Florida. You would file in the county that the spouse resides in, or if both live in different counties in Florida, you could use either county.
(Florida Statutes - Chapters: 61.021)
Only long enough to officially demonstrate and declare the state as youir "legal" residence.
HOWEVER - you must actually go through the steps that demonstrate to the court that you are, in fact, a legal and and bona-fide Florida resident.
If they are willing to pay an attorney, they can drag it out for years.
A person can drag out a divorce as long as the court and judges allow them to. Eventually, the court will decide when it ends.

If you were living in Mississippi at the time you were ordered to pay separate maintenance, and then you move to Florida, you can file a motion to contest it after you have lived in Florida for a specific amount of time. A Florida attorney can advise you as to how long you have to live in Florida before you can file a motion to contest the spousal (separate) maintenance. As for your spouse refusing to give you a divorce, you can get one anyway. A judge cannot order you to remain married to someone you no longer wish to be married to, whether you have children or not. Again, a Florida attorney can advise you on that, as well.
For a Georgia divorce, or any other state for that matter, you can obtain a divorce and it is not necessary for the other party to agree or even appear. As long as you meet the residency requirement, you can file for a divorce. You would have to have a process server go to the prison and serve her with the petition for your Georgia divorce but that is not all that unusual, it happens fairly often. However, I would retain a Georgia divorce attorney to assist you under these circumstances.
Florida law does not require a separation period before obtaining a divorce. Perhaps you are referring to the Marital Separation Agreement, which is the process of distribution of joint property/assets.

Getting a divorce will depending on the state that you live. Some states may require a period of separation before divorce, while other will allow the couple to move forward with divorce only.
It all depends on what state you live in. States like Florida that are a No-Fault divorce state wont require any reason for a divorce. Which means they can contest it all they want, but it won't do them any good. You can divorce for any reason as long as one person says it is over. In other states that aren't a No-Fault state you will need a reason for filing for Divorce, such as infidelity, abuse ect.
