No Fault Divorce - What has changed?
No fault divorce came into effect in England and Wales on 6 April 2022.
The introduction of no-fault divorce means that couples can get divorced without one person needing to lay blame on the other. This change also applies to civil partnership dissolution. Under the new laws, couples can get divorced solely on the basis that the marriage has broken down, without needing to cite one of the 5 reasons for divorce, as was previously required. Under the old divorce system, one person would submit a divorce petition citing their spouse's behaviour or a period of separation as the reason for the divorce, and their spouse could contest this.
No-fault divorce means there isn't a requirement for one person to blame the other for the breakdown of the marriage or civil partnership. It is also no longer possible to contest a divorce or civil partnership dissolution (unless it's on the basis of jurisdiction).
Couples can now apply for divorce jointly, under the old divorce laws, one person needed to issue divorce proceedings against the other.
Divorce terminology has also been updated. Some of the wording previously used in the divorce process was flagged as being outdated, so it has been brought up to date.
The person who started the divorce used to be called the Petitioner. Under the new no fault divorce system, the application can either be made by one person (called the applicant) or both people can make the application jointly. If the application is just made by one person, the other person is called the Respondent.
The Decree Nisi is now called the Conditional Order and the Decree Absolute is now called the Final Order.
There is a minimum timeframe of 26 weeks between the application and Final Order.
A minimum timeframe of 20 weeks has been introduced between the Application being issued and the Conditional Order being applied for. A further 6 weeks and 1 day period must then pass between the Conditional Order and the application for the Final Order.
This timeframe has been introduced to counter concerns that the reforms would make divorce a quicker and easier option for couples than trying to save their relationship. This 'period of reflection' gives couples an opportunity to reflect and work through their differences before committing to a divorce or civil partnership dissolution.
