Best Answer

Where you can and cannot file for divorce can certainly be confusing!

You can file for divorce in the state you got married in and any state that you or your exspouse is a resident of. If you are not yet a resident of a state then you have to file in a state in which you are.

Generally, states require spouses to be residents for either 6 months or a year before filing for divorce. For example, Vermont, Texas and Pennsylvania require 6 months or 180 days of residency. New York, Iowa and Connecticut require 1 year. A few states have shorter required periods - only 60 days of residency are required to file a divorce in Arkansas, Kansas and Wyoming.
