About your State

Nevada is famous for a reason: just six weeks of residency to file, and then no mandatory waiting period at all. Couples who agree on everything can file a Joint Petition together and, in many cases, finalize their divorce within 10 to 14 business days.


Nevada is a community property state, splitting marital assets and debts equally. These free forms can help you get organized and understand what paperwork Nevada will expect from you.


Sourcing & Verification

• NRS § 125.020 (6-week residency)

• NRS § 125.181 (Joint Petition, no waiting period)
