💍➡️💔 什麼是 Uncontested Divorce?美國最快、最便宜的離婚方式

在美國,離婚有很多種方式,其中最快、最省錢、最和平(不吵、不拖、不上庭)的,就是 Uncontested Divorce(協議離婚)

許多移民家庭、普通家庭、甚至財務不複雜的夫妻,都會選擇這種方式,因為:

  • 雙方都已同意離婚
  • 不需要打官司
  • 不需要開正式法庭(多數情況)
  • 費用低、流程快
  • 壓力最少、最和平

一、什麼情況適合 Uncontested Divorce?

要使用 Uncontested Divorce(協議離婚),最重要的條件只有一個:

➡️ 雙方都同意離婚,而且重要事項都談好了。

什麼叫做「重要事項」?包括:

  • 財產怎麼分
  • 孩子誰帶(監護權 custody)
  • 探視方式(visitation)
  • 孩子的扶養費(child support)
  • 要不要支付配偶扶養費(spousal support)
  • 房子、車子、存款怎麼處理

只要這些都談好了,法院就會讓你走「uncontested」的快速流程。


二、Uncontested Divorce 的流程

一般流程如下(不同州細節略有差異):

  1. 準備離婚協議(書面 agreement)
  2. 到法院提交離婚 petition
  3. 繳交 filing fee(約 $200–$450)
  4. 文件審核完成後,法院簽發離婚判決(judgment)

⏳ 整體時間可能只要 1~3 個月。

有些州甚至允許:

  • 線上提交
  • 不用上庭
  • 電子簽名即可完成

三、Uncontested Divorce 有什麼好處?

1. 費用最省
通常只需 filing fee + 少量文件處理費。如果需要律師協助,費用也比一般離婚低非常多。

2. 時間最快
沒有爭議 → 就不必排法庭 → 案件自動走快速通道。

3. 全程和平
不吵架、不互相攻擊、也不會互相毀滅財務與證據。

4. 不查身份(適用於無證移民)
家庭法院不查移民身份,無證移民也可以辦 uncontested divorce。


四、哪些情況「不適合」 Uncontested Divorce?

如果夫妻之間有以下情況,可能無法使用 uncontested divorce:

  • 一方不同意離婚
  • 財產爭議很大
  • 一方隱藏收入或財產
  • 孩子監護權爭執激烈
  • 家暴、精神虐待、恐嚇

這些情況通常會進入 contested divorce(爭議離婚)


五、無證移民可以走 Uncontested Divorce 嗎?可以!

很多人會問:沒有身份可以辦離婚嗎?答案是:

✔ 完全可以,而且家庭法院不查身份。

  • 無證可以申請
  • 不需要 SSN
  • 法院不會通報 ICE
  • 律師依法必須保密

只要雙方同意離婚,uncontested divorce 對無證移民來說也是最簡單的選擇。

  • 沒有重大財產或監護權爭議

那麼 Uncontested Divorce 是最快、最省錢、最好的方式。

💍➡️💔 What Is an Uncontested Divorce? The Fastest & Most Affordable U.S. Divorce Option

In the United States, the simplest, fastest, and least stressful way to end a marriage is through an uncontested divorce.

This method is widely used by citizens, immigrants, visa holders, and undocumented spouses because it is:

  • Quick
  • Affordable
  • Peaceful
  • Paperwork-friendly
  • Often done without a court hearing

1. When Do You Qualify for an Uncontested Divorce?

The key requirement is simple:

➡️ Both spouses agree to the divorce and have reached an agreement on major issues.

These major issues include:

  • Division of property
  • Child custody
  • Visitation schedule
  • Child support
  • Spousal support (if any)
  • How to handle the home, vehicles, and savings

2. The Uncontested Divorce Process (Very Simple)

  1. Prepare a written settlement agreement
  2. File a divorce petition with the court
  3. Pay the filing fee (approx. $200–$450 depending on the state)
  4. The court reviews the paperwork and issues a final judgment

⏳ Many cases finish within 1–3 months.

Some states offer:

  • Online filing
  • No hearing required
  • Electronic signatures

3. Why Choose an Uncontested Divorce?

1. Lowest Cost
Often just the filing fee, plus optional attorney help.

2. Fastest Timeline
No court battles → cases move quickly.

3. Most Peaceful
No fighting, no courtroom conflict.

4. Safe for Undocumented Immigrants
Family courts do not check immigration status.


4. When an Uncontested Divorce Is NOT Suitable

  • One spouse refuses to divorce
  • Major disputes over money or assets
  • Hidden income or hidden property
  • Serious conflict over child custody
  • Domestic violence or coercion

These situations often require a contested divorce.


5. Can Undocumented Immigrants Use Uncontested Divorce? Yes.

Family courts do not verify immigration status. Undocumented immigrants can:

  • File for divorce
  • Use uncontested divorce procedures
  • Request custody, visitation, and child support
  • Hire attorneys (who must maintain confidentiality)

Your immigration status does not prevent you from divorcing in the U.S.


6. Summary

An uncontested divorce is the best choice if:

  • You both agree to separate peacefully
  • You have resolved property and child issues
  • You want to minimize cost, stress, and time
