    Default Getting a Divorce from an Overseas Marriage

    My question involves a marriage in the state of: married in another country.
    Hi.
    My wife and I got married in India. I brought her here. We have a kid together. For months now, we have been in disagreements and arguing. I would like to file for a divorce. What would be the procedure?
    Thank you.

    That question is designed to determine your current state of residence but I guess you can't be faulted for taking it literally.

    To learn the procedure for the state in which you reside, find your local divorce or family court website and you should be able to find self help forms and instructions.

    You can also google "divorce procedure __________" inserting the name of your state.

    If you both have lived for a length of time in New Jersey, then you are eligible to file a divorce petition here, provided you both agree to subject yourself to submit for this jurisdiction. You may either file a mutual consent petition or otherwise and if you do get divorce here on the mentioned condition, then this divorce decree is acceptable and applicable in India too.
