You have to file for legal separation. Contact your county clerk for forms. I know that something has to be filed, but does it have to be filed immediately? I went threw a divorce and everything was backdated to the date I moved out, but was I considered "legally" separated the day I moved out or did it just become "legal" the day the paperwork was signed?

In North Carolina, there is no requirement to file any legal documents to be considered legally separated. If two people physically separate and live apart with the intention of ending their marriage or relationship, they can be considered legally separated. However, it is advisable to consult with an attorney to understand your specific situation and the potential legal implications.
