Frequently Asked Questions
What are the residency requirements for divorce in North Carolina?
At least one spouse must have lived in North Carolina for six months before filing. The divorce is filed in the county where either spouse resides. This requirement applies to all divorces in the state.
How long does a divorce take in Wilmington North Carolina?
A no fault divorce based on one year separation takes at least one year from the date you separate. Contested divorces with disputes over property or children can take much longer. The court schedule in New Hanover County also affects the timeline.
What is the difference between absolute divorce and divorce from bed and board in North Carolina?
An absolute divorce ends the marriage completely after one year of separation. A divorce from bed and board is a legal separation that does not end the marriage but addresses support and living arrangements. Absolute divorce is the more common option for ending a marriage.
