Separating but still living together

Q: My wife and I have decided to separate on friendly terms. My wife is
leaving me, the children, and eventually the home. Due to monetary issues
and the children in the home, my wife will temporarily be staying in the
home but in a different part of the home. Does this create a problem with
filing the Separation papers? Her address will be the same as mine! Or
does she need to have a different address?

A: This should not be a problem. You can be separated while still living
under the same roof if you stop doing activities together such as shopping,
eating, sharing things, doing things for each other, being out in public
together, etc.

We hope this is helpful.
