Residency Requirements

In order for Arkansas courts to have jurisdictional rights to hear the divorce case, the spouses must meet the established residency requirements of the state.

Either spouse must have been a resident of Arkansas for at least 60 days before filing for a divorce.

The Petition for divorce must be filed in the county where the plaintiff (the spouse who initiates a divorce) lives. If the plaintiff is not a resident of Arkansas, then the divorce papers may be filed within the county where the other spouse resides.

Our smooth breakup allowed us to file for uncontested divorce and we just decided to arrange it as simply as possible. Online divorce seemed to be a good idea, and now I'm sure we did it right. All the papers were prepared with no issues and I'm pleased with the price. Thanks.

I think that all the papers related to a certain county with its own legal nuances would be prepared correctly only by a Arkansas-based company. So that's why I used OnlineArkansasDivorce and I was really satisfied. My divorce papers were completed in a timely manner and I had no troubles with filing. That was a really smooth process and you can be confident with your filing.

It always seemed to me that divorce must be a much more complicated process. I couldn't imagine how I would cope with that. Where do I get all those papers, how to fill them out and where to go and what to do? So, I was really glad I found onlinearkansasdivorce.com and they took care of all the paperwork and gave me clear instructions on how to file with the court. That made the whole process so much easier!
