Divorce Documents: Online Divorce in Canada |
To use our service there must be no disputes with your spouse about
Also, to use our service you, or your spouse, must have lived in one Canadian province or territory (except Quebec) for at least the past 12 months and must continue to reside there until your divorce papers are filed with the court. The other spouse can live anywhere in the world, so long as one meets the Canadian resident criteria. The most commonly used grounds for divorce is separation for one year. This is the only grounds for divorce for which we will prepare documents. (The other grounds are cruelty or adultery but our service does not cover these.)
We will provide you with all the documents and instructions you will need to obtain your divorce. These instructions will deal with filing your documents with the court office, serving your spouse (if necessary), and obtaining your divorce judgment and final divorce certificate. For some further details follow this link for more about how to use our documents to obtain a divorce in Canada.
The fees are different for each province and they change from time to time. The fees depend somewhat on certain choices you have. These are approximations based on typical cases. Keep in mind that whether you use our service, hire a lawyer, or try to do it yourself, you will have to pay these additional fees to the court.
Normally you need an address so you can serve documents on your spouse. First try searching on www.Canada411.com. If that doesn't work you can hire a process server to find your spouse and serve the documents. If this fails you will need to hire a lawyer to obtain a court order allowing for some form of substituted service (such as serving the documents on another close relative of your spouse).
Here's a couple of great directories to help you find the help you need: These pages contain links to help you locate and serve your spouse in other countries as well.
You can find a Notary Public or Commissioner of Oaths at most provincial offices and some other public buildings such as libraries. If you call the court office they will tell you whether there will be someone available there to witness your affidavit. Also, all law offices will perform this service, sometimes at no, or almost no charge. Or you can use this link to contact a national network of Notaries:
A separation agreement is a legally binding contract between spouses (married or common-law) or ex-spouses setting out the terms of their relationship after separation. A separation agreement often deals with how property (and debts) will be divided between the spouses, spousal support, child custody, child access and child support.
We can't advise you about whether you should have a separation agreement - that would be legal advice. However, we can tell you that you can use our service to obtain a divorce without a separation agreement as long as you already have one, or you are content not to deal with the division of property or debts. If you do want to deal with property or debts, then you need a separation agreement too. When you order our divorce document assembly service you are also entitled to receive a comprehensive legal serparation agreement package - a fully editable, do-it-yourself kit with complete instructions in multiple formats (Word, WordPerfect, and RTF) for no extra charge. If you only want the separation agreement package but not the divorce document assembly service, the charge is $49. You can order the separation agreement package here. Or you can read more details about the separation agreement package here.
Yes, but there is a time limit in most provinces for how long you can wait. For example, in Ontario you have to settle the property division within 2 years of your divorce date, 6 years of your separation, and 6 months of your spouse's death. Make sure you don't exceed these time limits before settling the property issues.
There are really just three options open to you if you want a divorce. Option #1 is to use a cheap divorce kit and try to do it yourself. This is fine if you know what you are doing and/or have a great deal of time on your hands. This method is complicated and time-consuming. Most people who try this method end up quitting and opting for one of the other methods. If you agree with the old saying that "time is money", this is the most expensive option. Option #2 is to hire a lawyer to process it for you. This relieves you of the work, but can be quite costly as lawyers may charge up to several thousand dollars for this service. If you cannot resolve your differences with your spouse, or you are unsure of your legal rights, you should hire a lawyer who can provide you with the legal advice and representation you require. Option #3 is to use our service. The advantages are that you avoid almost all of the work (and time) in preparing the documents yourself, and you avoid almost all of the cost of hiring a lawyer. Our service is a convenient, affordable, middle ground. For about the cost of one hour with a lawyer we save you literally dozens of hours of work figuring out what documents you need, how to complete them and how to file them. Just print and file the documents we send you according to our instructions. And the best part is that we are always there to support you by answering questions about our service or to make any necessary revisions to your documents.
