Manitoba Uncontested Divorce Kit
File your Petition for Divorce. Submit your Affidavit of Petitioner's Evidence. Finalize your divorce without a lawyer.
In Manitoba, most uncontested divorces are handled by "paper trial." This means you submit an Affidavit of Petitioner's Evidence instead of testifying in court. Our kit provides the Petition (Form 70A), Affidavit, and Divorce Judgment templates you need to get approved.
Includes Form 70A, Affidavit of Evidence & Judgment.
Secure checkout · Instant PDF Access · Valid for Winnipeg, Brandon & all MB Courts
Built around the current state or province workflow for uncontested cases.
Forms, checklists, and filing steps are tailored to the selected location.
Payments are processed by Stripe. We do not store your full card number.
If our kit causes a filing issue we cannot resolve, we refund the purchase price.
PlainDivorce is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. Always confirm current fees, local rules, and filing requirements with the official court or government source before filing.
Do You Qualify for an Uncontested Divorce?
To skip the courtroom appearance, your divorce must be truly uncontested.
Use this kit if:
- ✓ You or your spouse has lived in Manitoba for at least 1 year.
- ✓ You are filing based on 1-year separation.
- ✓ Your spouse will not contest the divorce (or will sign a Joint Petition).
- ✓ You agree on all parenting, support, and property issues.
Talk to a lawyer if:
- ✕ You have lived in Manitoba for less than 1 year.
- ✕ Your spouse is contesting the divorce or refusing to communicate.
- ✕ You need to apply for an emergency protection order.
- ✕ You have complex corporate assets or disputed property.
Why Choose an Affidavit Kit?
In Manitoba, you don't need a trial if you file the correct Affidavit of Petitioner's Evidence. This document acts as your testimony. Our kit ensures this critical document is formatted correctly so the judge can sign your Divorce Judgment in their office.

What's Included: Official Court of King's Bench Forms

Petition for Divorce

Core Legal Documents

How It Works
A simple roadmap to get your Divorce Judgment in Manitoba.
File Petition
Download the kit. Fill out the Petition for Divorce. File it with the Court of King's Bench (approx. $200 filing fee).
Serve & Clear
Serve your spouse (or file a Joint Petition to skip this). The court also runs a federal clearance check in Ottawa, which typically takes several weeks.
Submit Affidavit
File your Affidavit of Petitioner's Evidence. This replaces your court testimony. The judge reviews it in chambers.
Certificate
The divorce is effective 31 days after the judge signs the Judgment. You can then request your Certificate of Divorce.
Total time from filing to judgment is typically a few months, mostly driven by the federal clearance wait and registry processing — not something a kit can speed up.

Frequently Asked Questions
“What is the Affidavit of Petitioner's Evidence?”
This is a sworn document (Form 70M) that acts as your "testimony" for the court. In Manitoba uncontested divorces, filing this affidavit allows the judge to grant the divorce without requiring you to appear in person for a hearing.
“What is a Petition for Divorce?”
The Petition for Divorce (Form 70A) is the document that officially starts your case in the Court of King's Bench. It tells the court what you are asking for regarding the divorce, property, and children.
“How much are the court filing fees?”
Currently, the filing fee to start a Petition is $200. There is a further $30 fee to request the Certificate of Divorce once your judgment is final, plus small optional costs like a process server or a commissioner/notary to swear your affidavit.
“When is the divorce final?”
The divorce takes effect on the 31st day after the judge signs the Divorce Judgment. This 31-day period is allowed for appeals. Once it passes, you can obtain your Certificate of Divorce.
