About this form
This packet opens an uncontested no-fault divorce in New Jersey, where both spouses agree on the terms.
New Jersey is a one-spouse complaint state in the Family Part. Cases with minor children also require the Parents’ Education Program, official child-support worksheets, and usually payment through Probation. 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 DIVORCE (MINOR CHILDREN). This is the filing that opens an uncontested no-fault divorce with unemancipated children in a New Jersey Family Part.
Children: each child’s name, address, date of birth, and where and with whom the child lives must be stated (R. 5:4-2(a)(2)).
Support: official Appendix IX worksheets, Uniform Summary Support Order CN 10284, and the Parents’ Education Program ($25, separate sessions) apply.
The full packet also includes the UCCJEA affidavit, proposed Final Judgment, official CIS/CLIS/CDR forms, and the federal income-withholding order.

The 1 packet documents listed on this page are included, delivered in PDF format. The packet centers on the Complaint for Divorce that opens an uncontested no-fault case, plus the supporting filing documents and reference materials shown above.
Because this packet uses irreconcilable differences, one spouse must have been a bona fide New Jersey resident for the one year next preceding filing (N.J.S.A. 2A:34-10). Venue is a separate rule: file in the county where the plaintiff was domiciled when the cause of action arose, or the next available R. 5:7-1 branch. Confirm the county with the Family Division clerk.
New Jersey grants a no-fault divorce when irreconcilable differences have caused the breakdown of the marriage for a period of six months and there is no reasonable prospect of reconciliation (N.J.S.A. 2A:34-2(i)). One spouse files a Complaint in the Superior Court, Chancery Division, Family Part. New Jersey does not have a statewide joint-petition form.
There is still no statutory waiting period after filing, but each party must complete a separate Parents’ Education Program session and pay the $25 fee unless the court finds good cause or a party is not referred because a restraining order restricts contact (N.J.S.A. 2A:34-12.3, 2A:34-12.5). Child support is calculated on official Appendix IX worksheets and is generally paid through the New Jersey Family Support Payment Center. Court schedules vary by county.
No. This packet is built for uncontested cases where both spouses cooperate, usually by signing an acknowledgment of service and appearance. If your spouse will not participate, consult a New Jersey attorney about service, default, and R. 5:5-10 notice.
No. ILRG provides self-help legal forms and information, not legal advice. Consult a New Jersey attorney if you have significant property, retirement accounts, business interests, safety concerns, or any disagreement about terms.
