Get an Uncontested Divorce in Toronto without the Hassle

An uncontested divorce is a straightforward legal process where both spouses mutually agree to end their marriage without disputes over child custody, support, or property division.

Who Qualifies for an Uncontested Divorce?

To be eligible for an uncontested divorce in Toronto, you must meet the following criteria:

✔ Both spouses agree to the divorce – There are no disputes over major issues.
✔ You have been separated for at least 12 months – This is the most common ground for divorce in Canada.
✔ There are no unresolved legal disputes – Child custody, support, and asset division have already been settled.

If you meet these requirements, you can proceed with an uncontested divorce without the need for costly legal battles.

Why Choose an Uncontested Divorce?

✅ Saves You Thousands – Lower legal fees and court costs compared to contested divorces.
✅ Faster Processing Time – Can be finalized within 4-6 months instead of years.
✅ No Court Battles – Avoids the stress and expenses of lengthy litigation.

Step-by-Step Process for an Uncontested Divorce in Toronto.

  • Step 1: Confirm Eligibility for an Uncontested Divorce

    Before filing, ensure you meet the legal requirements for an uncontested divorce in Ontario:

    âś” You must have been separated for at least 12 months.
    âś” At least one spouse must have lived in Ontario for 12 months before filing.

    These criteria are essential to qualify for a divorce under the Divorce Act (Canada).

  • Step 2: Gather Required Documents

    To file an uncontested divorce, you will need the following:

    📄 Marriage Certificate – If you don’t have a copy, you can request one from Vital Statistics Canada or the province where you were married.

    📄 Separation Agreement (if applicable) – Although not mandatory, a separation agreement clarifies financial and parenting arrangements, reducing the chances of future disputes.

    📄 Completed Divorce Forms – You will need:

    • Form 8A (Application for Divorce)
    • Form 36 (Affidavit for Divorce)
    • Form 25A (Divorce Order)

    Forms can be filed online or submitted in person at an Ontario Superior Court.

  • Step 3: File the Divorce Application

    Once your documents are ready:

    âś” Submit your Application for Divorce at the Ontario Superior Court of Justice.
    âś” Pay the court filing fee of approximately $632 (payable in two installments).
    âś” If filing a joint divorce, both spouses sign and submit the application together.
    âś” If filing a sole divorce, the other spouse must be served with the divorce papers.

  • Step 4: Wait for Court Processing

    After submission:

    âś” The court reviews and processes your divorce application.
    âś” If there are no missing documents or errors, your case moves forward.
    âś” No court appearance is required in most uncontested divorces.

    Processing times vary, but an uncontested divorce typically takes 4 to 6 months to complete.

  • Step 5: Receive the Divorce Certificate

    âś” Once the court grants the Divorce Order, you must wait 31 days for the divorce to become final.
    âś” After the waiting period, you can request a Certificate of Divorce, which serves as official proof of your divorce status.

    This certificate is necessary if you plan to remarry or need legal documentation of your marital status.
