What Sets Joint Divorce Apart


What’s the difference between sole and joint uncontested divorce?



  • With a sole (simple) divorce, one spouse files and must serve their spouse—usually adding at least four weeks waiting time.
  • With a joint divorce, both spouses file together and agree upfront, eliminating service and response steps. This makes the process faster and more streamlined


Eligibility Requirements


To qualify, you each must:


  • Be legally married—with a marriage certificate supplied.
  • Have been a resident of Ontario for at least 12 months prior to filing.
  • Be separated for at least one year (exceptions exist for adultery or cruelty, but these are rare)




Benefits of Choosing Joint Divorce


  • No service needed, which removes delays.
  • Simplified process — fewer procedural steps.
  • Flat-fee clarity — know your cost and timing upfront.
  • Virtual or in-person service — whichever suits you best.
  • FLSP-authorized support — you’re working with one of the few LSO authorized family-law paralegals in Ontario.

Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions? We’ve answered them below — or book your free case review for a personalized walkthrough.

  • 1. What is a joint divorce?

    A joint divorce is when both spouses file together, agree on all terms, and there are no disputes about property, custody, or support. It’s the fastest, least stressful way to legally end a marriage in Ontario.

  • 2. Do we both need to be living in Ontario?

    No — only one spouse must have lived in Ontario for at least 12 consecutive months before filing.

  • 3. Do we have to be separated for a full year before filing?

    Yes, unless the divorce is based on adultery or cruelty — which are rare and require proof. Most couples file after being separated for one year.

  • 4. Can we still file jointly if we live in different homes?

    Yes. In fact, that’s normal. As long as you’re legally separated and agree on the terms, you can file together—even if you live apart.

  • 5. Do we both have to sign everything?

    Yes. Both parties must sign and review the application. We’ll walk you through it and coordinate the signatures (virtually or in person).

  • 6. Do we need to go to court?

    No. With a joint uncontested divorce, no court appearance is needed. We prepare, file, and track the application on your behalf.

  • 7. How long does a joint divorce take in Ontario?

    Typically 6 to 12 weeks after filing, depending on the court's backlog. Once granted, there’s a 31-day waiting period before the divorce becomes final.

  • 8. What documents do we need to file?

    You’ll need:

    • A marriage certificate
    • The joint divorce application forms
    • Signed affidavits of separation

    We’ll prepare everything and tell you exactly what’s needed.

  • 9. Do we have to file financial or parenting documents?

    Not for a basic divorce. If you already agree on parenting or support, those terms can be handled separately. Ask us about separation agreements if needed.

  • 10. What happens after the divorce is granted?

    You’ll receive a Divorce Order, followed by a Certificate of Divorce (upon request) after 31 days. We help you get both.
