Address on divorce forms

[marmite92]

Posting here for traffic - my ex is filing for divorce against me which I'm very happy for him to do. It will be very simple, no kids or assetts. But I'm moving and don't want him to have my new address. We are doing it ourselves without solicitors (apart from clean break order) so just wondering am I able to tell him to use a family members address on the form (which he already knows) or does it have to legally be where you currently live?

i think family member address should be fine with a 'directed to' or 'c/o' and your name at the top.

Thank you, I just wasn't sure whether the judge or someone would check whether I legally live there, but surely people don't always want their ex knowing their address all the time

I think you can respond online. I think the important thing is your acknowledgement you have been served and your response. Unless he has to physically serve you (if you didn't respond) would an address be needed.

I think there's a form you can fill in so the court has your address but your H won't see it. You are right that not all divorcing couples want their ex to know their new address and the courts are familiar with that.

Great, thank you!

Great, thank you!

Or could you set up mail redirection? Use old address?
