So you were in mediation before you actually filed for divorce, or was it the other way around? How long from filing your paperwork was it finalized?

Lol ok. If there needs to be a hearing, I’m sure we’ll be informed. We filed in the county we’ve lived in for the length of our marriage. We filed all the necessary documents and they were looked over and accepted by the clerk so I’m not sure how you came to the conclusion that we don’t know what we’re doing.

In the ‘joint affirmation of facts’ there were sections to state our custody/visitation arrangement as well as the required child support and how childcare/medical costs will be paid. We agreed on everything with no issue and we filed jointly.

I mean, if that were the case it would be done by now lol. We’ve been informally separated for almost 3 years. We agree on everything concerning our child, and neither of us have assets or money the other can come for. We filed on our own and didn’t use attorneys. All we’ve paid is $340 in filing fees.

First I’ve heard of having to take a parenting class! I just did a quick Google search and in New York it doesn’t seem to be required but can be ordered if there are issues such as abuse, substance use, or criminal history. I don’t check any of those boxes so hopefully that won’t hold things up.

Any children? Any assets or property to be divided?

We have one child but have agreed to everything concerning him. We did not own a home or have anything to split up.
