About this form
This packet opens an uncontested no-fault divorce in Nebraska, where both spouses agree on the terms.
Nebraska is a pure no-fault state with a one-year residency rule and a 60-day wait. Cases with minor children use the official with-children packet: the Complaint (DC 6:5.1), the Financial Affidavit (DC 6:5.2), the three parent-created Parenting Plans (DC 6:5.37/38/39), the parenting-education certificate (DC 6:5.5), and the party-prepared Decree With Children (DC 6:5.3). Custody and support stay court-reviewable (§ 42-366(2)); support terminates at age 19, marriage, emancipation, or death. The settlement product is a PublicLegal-authored agreement that incorporates the official Parenting Plan and support calculation rather than rewriting them. SCOPE: the official forms are for a simple divorce — no real estate, retirement, or alimony. Those blank official forms are free at supremecourt.nebraska.gov — you are paying for current-edition packaging, the eligibility screen, and ILRG product support. That is not legal advice. The FAQ below covers the details.
See page 1 of the actual blank form and review a plain-language outline. The complete formatted documents are delivered after checkout.
COMPLAINT FOR DISSOLUTION OF MARRIAGE — WITH CHILDREN (official Form DC 6:5.1). The official Nebraska Supreme Court pro se complaint that opens a no-fault dissolution with minor children in the District Court. Free blank at supremecourt.nebraska.gov.
Residency and ground: the same one-year residency rule (§ 42-349) and irretrievable-breakdown ground (§ 42-361(1)) apply, and Nebraska must be the children's home state for custody.
The full packet also includes the Financial Affidavit (DC 6:5.2), the three parent-created Parenting Plans (DC 6:5.37/38/39), the parenting-education certificate (DC 6:5.5), the party-prepared Decree With Children (DC 6:5.3), and the PublicLegal-authored settlement agreement.
Child support: calculated under the Nebraska Child Support Guidelines with the court-linked calculator — the decree requires the worksheet printout attached.

The 1 packet documents listed on this page are included, delivered in PDF format. The packet centers on the Complaint for Dissolution of Marriage (With Children) that opens an uncontested no-fault case, plus the supporting filing documents and reference materials shown above.
The same one-year residency rule applies (§ 42-349), and Nebraska must be the children's home state under the UCCJEA for the court to decide custody. File in the District Court of the county where you or your spouse lives. Confirm local filing practice with the clerk.
Nebraska is pure no-fault: the only ground is that the marriage is irretrievably broken (Neb. Rev. Stat. § 42-361(1)); fault is abolished. The judge finds the marriage broken if both spouses state it under oath, or one states it and the other does not deny it. If your spouse will not agree, this is not your packet.
The same jurisdictional 60-day wait applies (§ 42-363). Cases with minor children add a required Parenting Plan (§ 43-2929) — the official parent-created DC 6:5.37/38/39, which the decree (DC 6:5.3) attaches and incorporates — plus a Financial Affidavit (DC 6:5.2) and a child-support calculation under the Nebraska Child Support Guidelines (Neb. Ct. R. Ch. 4; use the court-linked calculator — the decree requires the worksheet printout attached). The court SHALL order both parents to the basic co-parenting course (§ 43-2928; certificate DC 6:5.5); mediation is required only if no parenting plan is filed in time (§ 43-2937(3)). You are not divorced until the judge signs the decree. Court schedules vary by county.
No. This packet is the agreed path for spouses who settle every issue. If your spouse will contest, consult a Nebraska attorney about the contested process.
No. ILRG provides self-help legal forms and information, not legal advice. Consult a Nebraska attorney if you have significant property, retirement accounts, business interests, safety concerns, or any disagreement about terms.
