How can an American same-sex couple who married in Canada obtain a divorce?

The partner(s) who wishes to be divorced must find a jurisdiction in which: (a) the same-sex marriage is recognized; and, (b) the partner meets the residency requirement. For example, if the married couple lives in New York State, they can get a divorce in New York State, the same as an opposite-sex couple. If the married couple lives in Texas, at least one partner will need to move to a state where the marriage is legally recognized, live there for the minimum amount of time required by that state's divorce statute (for example, one year), then file for divorce in the new state. After that, the actual procedure is the same as for opposite-sex couples.
