Didn't Go to My Wife's Interview

No fault means that you don't have to have a reason you want to get divorced beyond "irreconcilable differences". It doesn't mean that only one party can sign and have the divorce finalized. All divorces I've been involved with (in no fault states by the way) have either contained a stipulation agreement or have gone to court to have a court decide the terms. It's important to note that you don't need to sign divorce papers if the divorce doesn't stipulate the terms of spousal support or child support or asset division (even if the terms are "YOU GET NONE"). If you don't sign, it goes from an uncontested divorce to a contested divorce and a judge will decide the terms. Regardless of the state, if your divorce agreement doesn't contain a stipulation for support, etc....you don't sign it. Period. Again, the stipulation might read "you don't get support", but the stipulation is still part of the divorce agreement even if it is "none".

Funny how my own no-fault divorce (from PA) contains no wording at all regarding spousal support. However that's moot - because sponsored immigrants have been able to sue via the I-864 even after the divorce.

In fact, some courts have determined that the immigrant basically needs to file every year to obtain a judgment, depending on their own earnings for that year.
