Is This Kit Right for You?

Kentucky has strict residency and separation rules. Check below to see if you qualify.

Use this kit if:

  • One of you has lived in Kentucky for at least 180 days before filing.
  • You are living apart (or without sexual cohabitation) for at least 60 days.
  • You agree on all issues (custody, support, property).
  • Your spouse is willing to sign the Entry of Appearance and Waiver.

Talk to a lawyer if:

  • You have lived in Kentucky for less than 180 days.
  • The wife is currently pregnant (must wait until birth in KY).
  • Your spouse refuses to sign the Separation Agreement.
  • You have a protective order (EPO/DVO) in place.

Why Choose a DIY Kit?

Kentucky family courts can be particular about form formatting. We provide a complete packet, including the Petition, Separation Agreement, and the often-missed VS-300, organized for the Circuit Court clerk.

Kentucky lawyers typically charge $2,500+ for uncontested dissolutions. Our kit is a one-time fee of $129.

Frequently Asked Questions

“What is the 60-day separation requirement?”

Kentucky requires that the parties have lived apart (or without sexual cohabitation) for 60 days before the Decree of Dissolution can be entered. You can file your Petition before the 60 days are up, but the finalization must wait.

Learn more about the 60-day rule.

“What is the VS-300 form?”

The VS-300 Certificate of Divorce is a mandatory form required by Kentucky Vital Statistics to track divorces. The court clerk will reject your filing if this form is missing or incomplete. Our kit includes instructions for this form.

“What is a Separation Agreement?”

This is the contract between you and your spouse settling all issues of the marriage (property, debt, custody). The court reviews it to ensure it is not "unconscionable" and then incorporates it into your final Decree.

“Do I have to take a parenting class?”

Yes. Most Kentucky Circuit Courts require parents of minor children to attend the Families in Transition (FIT) program or a similar divorce education class. You must file a certificate of completion.
