You must file for divorce where one of you currently resides and you must meet the residency requirement of that state. For instance, in Virginia, you must live here for six months prior to filing for divorce and you must live here at the time you file. You also must verify that you intend for Virginia to be your permanent home. Other states may have other residence requirements.
