About this form

Before you file for divorce in Illinois

This packet opens an uncontested no-fault divorce in Illinois, where both spouses agree on the terms.

Illinois is a one-spouse petition state in Circuit Court. Cases with a child under 18, or an adult child who still needs support for school or disability, use the official With Children suite, including the official Parenting Plan when there is a minor child. Pregnancy is a stop. The FAQ below covers the details.

Frequently Asked Questions About Illinois Petition for Divorce Packet Forms

The 31 packet documents listed on this page are included, delivered in Word and print-ready PDF formats. The packet centers on the Petition for Divorce that opens an uncontested no-fault case, plus the supporting filing documents and reference materials shown above.

One spouse must have been an Illinois resident, or stationed in Illinois in the armed services, for 90 days next preceding commencement of the action or the making of the finding (750 ILCS 5/401(a)). File in the Circuit Court of the county where you or your spouse lives (750 ILCS 5/104). If neither of you lives in the filing county, you must file a written venue motion with the petition and have it heard first. Confirm the county with the clerk. Statewide AOIC forms must be accepted in every circuit; some counties also want a local cover sheet.

This packet uses Illinois's only remaining ground: irreconcilable differences have caused the irretrievable breakdown of the marriage or civil union (750 ILCS 5/401(a)). One spouse files the official Petition for Divorce. This packet is not Joint Simplified Dissolution, which uses clerk-supplied forms and a separate eligibility statute (750 ILCS 5/452). Do not use these forms if either spouse is pregnant.

The same no-filing-wait rule applies. After summons service, the respondent has 30 days to appear and answer. Cases with a minor child also require a written parenting plan (official ATJ 108.4) and a court-approved parenting class. Adult-dependent support stays on this packet and may be stated on official ATJ 106.2. Do not use these forms if either spouse is pregnant. You are not divorced until the judge signs official ATJ 106.2. Court schedules vary by county.

No. This packet is built for uncontested cases where both spouses cooperate, usually by signing an Appearance and completing official ATJ 104.4 plus the official Certification Agreement. If your spouse will contest the case, consult an Illinois attorney.

No. ILRG provides self-help legal forms and information, not legal advice. Consult an Illinois attorney if you have significant property, retirement accounts, business interests, safety concerns, or any disagreement about terms.
