How long do you have to wait to get remarried if you get divorced?

Answer 1

Some states have waiting periods for remarriage after the final dissolution decree has been issued, the majority of US states do not have such a law. The best option is to contact the clerk of the circuit court in the county and state where the divorce was granted. Please be advised, if the state where the divorce was finalized has a waiting period that applies to remarrying in any other US state.

Answer 2

Each jurisdiction has its own laws. You need to read the decree to see if it mentions when the decree becomes absolute. In some jurisdictions it becomes absolute immediately in others there is a waiting period of 30, 60, or even 90 days. You could also call the court that issued the decree or perform an online search using your state and "divorce-nisi period".

Answer 3

A Decree Nisi is the penultimate Order within the divorce process. It has a number of significances. The first is that six weeks after the date of pronouncement of Decree Nisi, the Petitioner can ask for a Decree Absolute, the final Order, which in effect ends the marriage. After Decree Absolute, the parties are free to re-marry, they are no longer each other's next of kin nor are they entitled to inherit under any Will or rules of intestacy.
