Frequently Asked Questions
“What is a Joint Petition (Form 72B)?”
A Joint Petition allows both spouses to sign and file the initial divorce paperwork together. This is highly recommended because it eliminates the need to serve documents on the other spouse, saving time and money.
“What is the Affidavit of Evidence?”
This is a sworn document where you state the facts of your marriage, separation, and arrangements for children. It acts as your testimony so you don't have to appear in court for a hearing.
“How much are the court filing fees?”
The initial filing fee for a Petition for Divorce in New Brunswick is approximately $110. There may be a small additional fee (around $7) for the Divorce Certificate later.
“When is the divorce final?”
The divorce is effective on the 31st day after the judge signs the Divorce Judgment (Form 72S). This is the appeal period. Once it passes, you can obtain your Certificate of Divorce.
