Yes, all 50 states will recognize a foreign divorce decree as legal and valid as long as one of the partners were residing in the country or state in which the divorce was actually granted.
Of course! It is a requirement of the US Constitution, that states recognize the actions of the other states. Marriage and divorce are key ones. One important exception is same-sex marriages. Ohio does not recognize same-sex marriages performed out-of-state.
To get a divorce the state first has to recognize the validity of the marriage. As Virginia does not currently recognize same-sex marriages, it is doubtful that one could obtain a legal same-sex divorce there.
No, adultery is not an illegal activity in the state of Ohio. But there are "no-fault" and "fault" grounds for divorce. And it is considered to be one of the nine "fault" grounds for divorce.
The Catholic Church does not recognize divorce. If one obtains a civil divorce the Catholic Church considers the couple as only separated. If a divorced Catholic remarries without an annulment that person is guilty of adultery and may no longer receive the sacraments.
Generally, the first step toward proving your foreign divorce should be to acquire a divorce decree from the country in which the divorce took place. Most states will acknowledge a foreign divorce decree, offering "full faith and credit." However, one of the parties must prove domicile in the foreign divorce country, showing they have taken up residence there. Some states will not recognize a divorce if this is not proven. Once you have the divorce decree from the foreign country where you got the divorce, have it authenticated so you can legitimately use it in the United States. The fee is $8.00 per document and can be done through the U.S. Department of State Authentication Office. Finally, you will need to have the document certifiably translated into English, if necessary, before you send it in.
There isn't one. You can go and apply for a marriage license when you walk out with the final divorce decree. Yes there is a grace period. i just got divorced today and we went to get a marriage license and they told us we had to wait 2 weeks because the judge could change his mind.

A civil union can only be dissolved by divorce proceedings. Vermont has a one-year residency requirement for divorce. However, both New Hampshire and Massachusetts recognize a Vermont civil union as a legal marriage. Therefore, either spouse can file for divorce in either NH or MA.
Yes. No matter which of the two countries you were married in, you are married until one of you dies or you get a judgment of divorce signed by a judge. You can still divorce your husband, even if he lives in a foreign country. You can still divorce your husband, even if you cannot find him. You cannot legally remarry until you obtain a divorce.
No but a good local lawyer can get a special permit to do one case in another state.
