Divorce is an unpleasant procedure, rather troublesome, and sometimes very lengthy: disputes about children and jointly acquired property can drag on for years. However, spouses may well get divorced in a short time.
It is necessary
- - statement of claim in 2 copies;
- - marriage certificate;
- - certificates of birth (adoption) of children;
- - certificates from the place of residence of the plaintiff and the defendant;
- - certificates of income of the plaintiff and the defendant;
- - notarized consent of the defendant to divorce;
- - agreements on the upbringing and maintenance of children, the payment of alimony, the division of property;
- - a receipt for payment of the state duty.
Instructions
Step 1
The main condition for a quick divorce is mutual consent and agreement on all issues that usually arise in the process of divorce. You can get a divorce in the civil registry office (REGISTRY OFFICE) or in court.
Step 2
If the spouses agree to a divorce and they do not have common minor children, the marriage is dissolved at the registry office. Submit a joint application to the registry office at the place of residence or marriage registration, pay the state fee. When one of the spouses cannot appear at the registry office, two separate applications are drawn up, and the consent to the divorce of the absent person must be notarized.
Step 3
For divorce in the registry office, a monthly period is established, the countdown of which begins the next day after the application is submitted. Upon its completion, the spouses are issued certificates of divorce, and it is enough for at least one of them to be present at the state registration of the divorce.
Step 4
If you have minor children (your own or adopted), you can only divorce through a court. In order not to drag out this process for many months, discuss in advance which of you the children will live with, determine the procedure for communicating with the other parent and relatives on both sides, and agree on the payment of alimony. Also, discuss all property issues. Make your agreements one or more agreements, certify them with a notary or submit them to the court for approval.
Step 5
Prepare the documents required for a divorce:
- statement of claim in 2 copies;
- marriage certificate;
- certificates of birth (adoption) of children;
- certificates from the place of residence of the plaintiff and the defendant;
- certificates of income of the plaintiff and the defendant;
- notarized consent of the defendant to divorce;
- agreements on the upbringing and maintenance of children, the payment of alimony, the division of property;
- a receipt for payment of the state duty.
Step 6
To speed up the divorce as quickly as possible, file a statement of claim with all the documents at a personal meeting with a magistrate. This way, your hearing will be scheduled faster and will be reviewed in one session. For a divorce through the court, a month is set from the date of submission of the application, after which the judge must make a decision on divorce and send it to the registry office within 3 days.
Step 7
Remember: getting a divorce in a short time is possible only with the consent of both spouses. Otherwise, the court may set a period for reconciliation of up to 3 months, postpone hearings due to the defendant's failure to appear, etc.
Step 8
Keep in mind that the minimum period for divorce is 1 month, so do not use intermediaries who offer you a divorce earlier: this is illegal. It is better to contact an experienced divorce lawyer: with his help you can competently prepare and submit documents or entrust him with representing your interests in court by proxy.
