What are the residency requirements to file for divorce in
Texas?
To file for a divorce in Texas, at the time the
divorce is filed, either spouse must have been living in Texas for the
preceding six-month period and a resident of the county in which the suit is
filed for the preceding 90-day period.*
If you are participating in the TX Attorney General’s Address
Confidentiality Program, the government will verify that you have met this
requirement, without disclosing your address.
Any time spent outside of Texas while serving in the U.S. armed forces
(or as an accompanying spouse of someone serving) is still counted as residency
in Texas for the purpose of calculating the six-month and 90-day time periods.**
