An in-person visit to the court office is best

Q: After the form is complete do I bring the form to the court in person? Do
I still need to go back to the court after that ? And how long will it
take.

A: We recommend an in-person visit to the court office so that you can
actually show the clerk your documents and review them together. Often the
clerks are quite helpful and it could shorten the process a bit if there are
revisions necessary to your documents. However, if a personal visit is a
problem you should be able to file by mailing the documents to the court
office. In some circumstances (which we will explain if it applied to you)
you may need to file your documents at two different times. Again, this can
be done by mail. You should allow at least 3-4 months for the whole process
from filing the documents to your divorce becoming final.

We hope this is helpful.
