Do I need to wait for divorce to get my property settlement done or to get my parenting issues resolved?
Do I need to wait for divorce to get my property settlement done or to get my parenting issues resolved? You can find the answer in this text.
Do I need to wait for divorce to get my property settlement done or to get my parenting issues resolved?
The answer is no. Divorce has nothing to do with property or parenting. You can start your property settlement immediately after separation. So the critical event here is actual separation. It’s the same for parenting matters as you can make parenting arrangements after separation.
Why would I leave divorce for after I resolve my parenting and property matters?
You can leave divorce because you can’t apply for divorce until 12 months after separation, so it’s a long time.Now, you can remain married forever, it doesn’t matter, divorce has nothing to do with property or children.
Is there any connection between divorce and property settlement?
The only connection between divorce and property is the limitation period. The law says that either party can apply to court seeking property settlement within 12 months after divorce order takes effect. Therefore, unless otherwise approved by the Court to apply for property settlement after this limitation date, you must complete your property settlement within 12 months of your divorce becoming effective.
