Prince Edward Island Uncontested Divorce Kit
File your Joint Petition. Submit your Affidavit. Finalize your divorce without a lawyer.
In PEI, filing a Joint Petition for Divorce (Form 70A*) allows you to skip serving your spouse. Most uncontested cases are handled by "affidavit evidence," meaning a judge reviews your file in chambers without a formal hearing. Our kit provides the Petition, Petitioner's Affidavit, and Divorce Judgment templates you need — with the correct PEI form numbers, not the mixed-up ones you'll find in generic guides.
Includes Joint Petition, Petitioner's Affidavit & Divorce Judgment.
Secure checkout · Instant PDF Access · For filing with the Supreme Court of Prince Edward Island (Family Section)

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 PEI 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 PEI 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 PEI, you can avoid a trial by filing the Petitioner's Affidavit on Motion for Judgment (Form 70P). This sworn document tells your story to the judge on paper. Our kit ensures this critical document is formatted correctly so the judge can sign your Divorce Judgment (Form 70S) in chambers.
Save Thousands
PEI lawyers typically charge $1,500 - $3,000 for uncontested divorces. Our kit is a one-time fee of $129.
Skip the Hearing
We provide the specific Petitioner's Affidavit forms that replace oral testimony, allowing you to finalize the divorce by paperwork.

That's money in your pocket for your fresh start.
What's Included: Forms Matched to the Supreme Court of PEI
We provide the standard forms accepted by the Supreme Court of Prince Edward Island, with the correct PEI form numbers.
Petition for Divorce
The document that starts your divorce: Form 70A for a sole petition, or Form 70A* for a Joint Petition signed by both spouses. We guide you on which one fits your situation.
Core Legal Documents
Includes the correct packet for your situation:
Financial Statements
Where a support or property claim is involved, PEI requires the 70I-series Financial Statements (Income, Expenses, and Property). We help you complete the ones that apply to you correctly — this is a different form from the Answer (Form 70D), a mix-up that trips up a lot of DIY filers.
Built for filing with the Supreme Court of Prince Edward Island (Family Section).
How It Works
A simple roadmap to get your Divorce Judgment in PEI.
File Petition
Download the kit. Fill out the Joint Petition (70A*) or Sole Petition (70A). File it with the Supreme Court of PEI ($100 court filing fee, plus a small federal registry fee — confirm current amounts when you file).
Clearance
The court needs a clearance report from the federal Central Registry of Divorce Proceedings before it can grant judgment. Processing time varies, so build in some buffer.
Submit Affidavit
File your Petitioner's Affidavit (Form 70P). This replaces your court testimony. The judge reviews it in chambers.
Judgment
The divorce is effective 31 days after the judge signs the Divorce Judgment (Form 70S). You can then request your Certificate of Divorce (Form 70T).

Frequently Asked Questions
“Isn't the Joint Petition Form 70B?”
That's a common mix-up — Form 70B is actually the Counterpetition, a response-style document. The real Joint Petition, signed by both spouses to start the divorce process together, is Form 70A*. Filing jointly means you do not need to serve documents on the other spouse, saving time and money. Our kit uses the correct form so you don't run into this trap.
“What is the Petitioner's Affidavit (Form 70P)?”
PEI's Rule 70 uses "petitioner," not "applicant," so you won't find an official "Affidavit of Applicant" form here — the document you actually need is the Petitioner's Affidavit on Motion for Judgment (Form 70P). It's a sworn statement 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?”
Under PEI's Court Fees Act Fees Regulations, the filing fee for a Petition for Divorce is currently $100, plus a marriage certificate from PEI Vital Statistics ($35). A modest federal fee also applies for the mandatory Central Registry of Divorce Proceedings search. Fees are set by the province and can change, so confirm current amounts with the registry before you file.
“When is the divorce final?”
The divorce becomes effective on the 31st day after the judge signs the Divorce Judgment (Form 70S). (Form 70O is a different document — it's the Requisition and Notice of Motion that asks the court for judgment, not the judgment itself.) Once this appeal period passes, you can request your Certificate of Divorce (Form 70T).
Important Legal Disclaimer
PlainDivorce is not a law firm. We do not provide legal advice, and we do not represent you in court or before the Supreme Court of Prince Edward Island. The Prince Edward Island Uncontested Divorce Kit is a self-help information product: it gives you the correct PEI forms (matched to Rule 70 and current Courts of PEI form numbers), plain-English instructions, and a checklist for assembling your file. It does not replace independent legal advice, and it cannot guarantee that a judge will grant your divorce or that your specific circumstances qualify for an uncontested filing.
Court filing fees are set by regulation and can change. As of this writing, the base Petition for Divorce filing fee is $100, plus a $35 marriage certificate from PEI Vital Statistics and a smaller federal registry fee — you are responsible for confirming current fees and any local requirements directly with the Supreme Court of Prince Edward Island (Family Section) before filing.
If you have safety concerns, a spouse who is contesting the divorce, complex assets, or unresolved parenting or support disputes, this kit is not a substitute for speaking with a PEI family lawyer or legal clinic.
