This is just the law learning from past mistakes. A large amount of divorces actually end up back together, and sometimes even remarry. The courts want you to be sure.
There is no time limit for the Petitioner to apply to the Court for Decree Nisi once the Acknowledgement of Service has been received from the Respondent, however if the time lapse is excessive it may be necessary for the Petitioner to explain the reason for the delay. Once the Decree Nisi has been granted the Petitioner can apply for Decree Absolute six weeks later. If the Petitioner does not apply to have the Decree made absolute, once three months have elapsed from the earliest date on which the Petitioner could have applied for Decree Absolute, the Respondent may apply for Decree Absolute. Therefore the earliest that the Respondent can apply is three months and six weeks after the pronouncement of the Decree Nisi. If neither the Petitioner nor Respondent has applied for the Decree Absolute after twelve months then any application for Decree Absolute must be referred to a District Judge who must ensure that various information is provided."
If the divorce was absolute, there are no laws restricting remarriage. If it wasn't, then you will need to wait 10 months of your divorce decree.
The time it takes for a court to grant a decree absolute can vary depending on the jurisdiction and specific circumstances of the case. Generally, after the application for a decree absolute is submitted, it can take a few weeks to a few months for the court to process and issue the decree. Factors such as court backlog, the complexity of the case, and whether all procedural requirements are met can influence the timeline. It's advisable to consult with a legal professional for more precise information based on individual circumstances.
Until you have a decree of separate maintenance or a final decree of divorce from a court, you must file as married filing jointly or married filing separately. If you did not live with your spouse during the final 6 months of the tax year at all, you may be eligible to file as head of household if you also meet the other requirements for head of household.
The procedure normally starts with a petition and ends with a decree. The outlined time frame for signing of the decree ranges from three to five months.
Until they have a final decree of divorce or a decree of separate maintenance, they are still considered married. If they did not live together at all during the last six months of the year, they can be considered unmarried only for the purpose of determining whether either spouse is eligible to file as head of household. Otherwise, they may file jointly or separately, but not as single.

If entered on or after 3/4/85, the divorce law provides for the granting of a decree nisi which does not become absolute so as to terminate the marriage until after the expiration of 90 days from the entry date unless the court otherwise orders. Decrees nisi entered prior to 3/4/85, did not become absolute so as to terminate the marriage until 6 months from entry unless the court otherwise ordered. During the period between the granting of the decree nisi and the date the decree becomes absolute the parties must remain married. A remarriage entered into during this period is therefore void in all States whether contracted within or outside Massachusetts.However, by statute, Massachusetts provides that if the remarriage was ceremonial and entered into by one of the parties in good faith and without knowledge of such impediment and the parties continued to cohabit thereafter in Massachusetts as husband and wife after removal of the impediment, the marriage will be recognized as valid beginning at the point in time the impediment is removed.
