Laws related to divorce vary greatly from state to state. Mississippi is a good place to live if you would like to stay married and your spouse has no reason to divorce you, but it is not a great place to live when it comes to payment of child support. Our child support guidelines are some of the lowest in the nation, but they do extend to age twenty-one, whereas some states stop at age eighteen. To be eligible for a divorce in Mississippi, you or your spouse must be an actual resident within this state for six months before you file. If you are a member of the armed services of the United States and are stationed in the state and residing within the state with your spouse, you will be considered a resident, provided you were here at the time of your separation. In any case where residence is acquired in this state with a purpose of securing a divorce, the court will not hear the case.
