    Default Moving After Filing for Divorce

    My question involves a marriage in the state of: PA

    I want to file for divorce in PA. He already said he will not sign the papers which means that under law I will have to wait for 2 years before I will be able to get a divorce on my own. Do I have to remain in PA for the next 2 years to wait for divorce or can I move? I have a dual citizenship and want to move to EU after I file. Is that possible or do I need to keep my residency in PA?? There are no kids and no property.

    In all honesty, there is nothing preventing you from returning to your home country immediately.

    That's not the answer to my question.

    I know there is nothing preventing me from going to EU, however, I was asking if I need to keep my residency in PA in order for divorce to be finalized? If i just leave US and do nothing, I will remain married forever. Can anybody else help please.

    I'm sorry.

    I'll rephrase.

    Your divorce CAN be completed while you reside outside of the US. Is that clearer?

    Feel free to consult with local counsel.
