[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Separation means not living like a married couple. This is best done by one of you moving out. That's the date your separation starts. There is nothing to file right now unless you need a support order and custody agreement in place during your separation. Consult an attorney for advice on your particular situation. You have a lot to lose if you make the wrong decisions going forward. [/quote] The first sentence in the above is correct. The second is not. Separation starts from the last time you shared a bed. You can sleep on the couch for a year and be separated. My ex husband filed an affidavit stating we hadn't slept together in a year (forget the legal term for this!) and voila, that was the date of separation. Talk to the Women's Center or a private attorney. There are a lot of state laws and rules that any family law attorney will know. There's a formula to determine child support, for example. Good luck OP.[/quote]
