Best Answer

You can file for divorce in the state in which you were married or the states in which you and your soon to be ex-spouse are currently residents. I would suggest that you file in the state in which you currently reside so that you can save yourself the time and trouble of traveling to Washington. However, you need to make sure you meet the residency time requirement before being able to do so. This can range from 6 months to 1 year.
