Divorce while separated but living together
Living separately under one roof is no obstacle. The no-fault process does not ask how long you have been separated or whether you share a home, so you can apply while still living at the same address.

See how it worksSeparation under one roof
Many couples separate emotionally and financially long before either moves out, often because of children, cost or a property sale. The law does not require you to change that in order to divorce.
Keeping the process discreet
- Use your own email address for court correspondence
- Save your progress and return when you have privacy
- Decide together, or on your own, whether to make a joint application
- Handle the financial settlement as a separate conversation
What you will need
Your marriage certificate details, your spouse's full name and an address or email for service, and around fifteen minutes to answer CalmSplit's initial questions.
