Obtaining Divorce
Report
In Ontario, the simplest way to obtain a divorce is to proceed "Uncontested". This refers to a procedure where one party files the Divorce Application with the court and serves it on the other party. The receiving party allows a 30 day filing deadline to expire without filing an Answer. After the deadline expires, the person who applied for the divorce files an Affidavit setting out the grounds for divorce.
