You can remarry the day after a Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage is entered by the Court.

As soon as you have your Judgment of Dissolution, filed with the court and signed (or stamped) by the Judge, it will tell you the date that your divorce becomes effective. You may remarry immediately after that date.

The fact that you have been separated for 2 years will not help you get remarried. You can get remarried after you have obtained a final decree/judgment of divorce.

Once your divorce is final, you can remarry immediately. Just be sure your divorce is final before you marry again. Good luck.

One second. But, your divorce (i.e., termination of marital status) cannot occur any sooner than 6 months after both parties are under the jurisdiction of the Court. Review your judgment for your answer.
