Is This Form Right For You?

Use This Form If:

  • Individuals who are initiating a divorce process may need to file an Affidavit for Divorce to establish residency in Nevada. This document serves as a formal declaration of their living situation and the incompatibility of the marriage, which is essential for the court's jurisdiction.
  • Situations requiring proof of residency often arise when one party is seeking a divorce in Nevada. By submitting this affidavit, the individual confirms they have met the minimum residency requirement of six weeks, which is crucial for proceeding with the divorce case.
  • For those who have already filed a Complaint for Divorce, this affidavit can be used to supplement their case. It provides necessary details regarding the length of residency and the reasons for the divorce, helping to clarify the circumstances to the court.
  • Couples who have mutually agreed to divorce may still need to file this affidavit to formally document their incompatibility. This legal form helps ensure that both parties are on the same page regarding the reasons for the divorce, which can facilitate a smoother process.

Do Not Use If:

  • – This form is not appropriate if you do not meet the residency requirement of six weeks in Nevada. Filing without meeting this requirement could result in the dismissal of your case.
  • – If both parties are in agreement regarding the divorce terms, a simpler form may be more suitable than an affidavit. The affidavit is primarily for establishing incompatibility and residency, which may not be necessary in amicable situations.
  • – Individuals facing domestic violence or abuse should seek legal counsel before filing any documents. An affidavit may not adequately address the complexities of such situations and could potentially put the victim at risk.
