I hope someone in the know can advise me! I have recently received the first set of divorce papers from my ex. How long do I have to sign them and return them? He is saying that the court need them back straightaway but I feel its only right that I have more time to look through them.

As respondent you have eight days to return the acknowledgement
of service. The eight days start on the day after you received the petition.
