Residency Requirements
It does not matter how long you have lived in the state. Still, either you or our spouse should be a resident of the state to be able to file for divorce. However, there is a specification: If the case is contested, a long residency period may be necessary. The period from filing to finalizing the divorce takes no more than 30 days if the divorce is uncontested. Military members whose residence is not Alaska may still file in Alaska if they have been continuously stationed at a military base or installation in Alaska for a minimum of 30 days.

Parenting Issues
Child custody always depends on the best interests of the child. Thus, judges pay attention to the needs of the children, whether parents will follow the court’s decision, the child’s opinion, whether the custodial parent will encourage communication between the child and the other parent, and the bond between each parent and the child. The court gives preference to shared legal custody, so both parents have equal rights in the decisions regarding the child’s well-being. Physical custody will depend on the agreement of the parties, taking into consideration the child’s best interests.
Child Support
The amount of the support is determined according to the accepted guidelines of the state. The payments continue till the child comes of age and can be extended until high school graduation. When calculating the amount of the support, the gross income of both parents is taken into consideration as well as the expenses for the child’s needs.
Filing Fees
Remember to ask your county’s court officer about filing fees, since our fee excludes court filing fees — which differ from county to county.
