Better to wait until you both move to Georgia, then after you both have done so you will both have to reside there for a certain period of time (whatever the residency requirement is for Georgia divorce filing) before the divorce case can be filed.

I have no idea what Georgia's residency and divorce laws are. But if you start it here you have to come back for hearings and trials, which is an additional expense.
