Residency requirements

To file for divorce anywhere in Canada you must be living in Canada now and you must have been living in the same province (or territory) that you file in for the past 12 months. An example will be much easier to follow. It's a pretty basic formula. Weight loss wars - I would end the article right there... Well, as we all know, water is a fluid that directly passes your colon, so drinking water can flush away those toxins and unwanted fats. Yes, dieting is hard, but that is no excuse to resort to unhealthy weight loss methods to lose unwanted weight. While the conscious mind reasons and argues, the subconscious simply responds. So, how do you do the amen solution review? With this you can also create a weight loss percentage graphic - actually drawing your progress at certain points. That inner drive, the motivation and the belief are all things that has to come from within you which is what really matters when you are trying to lose weight.

Let's say you are an American and you married an Australian 4 months ago in Hawaii. So far there's nothing about Canada but it doesn't matter. All that matters is where you live now and how long you have lived there.

Let's say you now live in Victoria, BC. You moved there last week. Before that you lived in Vancouver, BC where you had lived for 3 years. Under all those circumstances you can indeed file in BC because you meed the 12 month residency requirement. You can file on your own or jointly with your Australian spouse who now lives in Japan.

Registering your Separation Agreement

Many people ask what they should do with their separation agreement once it has been signed. Most just assume it should be filed or registered somewhere. Actually it is not necessary to file or register an agreement unless you need help enforcing it.

If child or spousal support is provided in the agreement, most provinces have a maintenance enforcement program which collects the payments if the agreement is registered. If some terms of the property division are not being adhered to, an action can be taken in court by filing the agreement and asking the court to enforce it.

However, if all is going well and both parties are abiding by the terms of the agreement, you may never need to file or register it at all.
