Oregon Residency Requirements
To file for divorce in Oregon, at least one spouse must have lived in the state of Oregon for the 6 months prior to filing the divorce. However, if you were married in Oregon, you can file for divorce there as long as one spouse is living there now, regardless of how long he or she has been living there.
Grounds For Divorce
The no fault grounds for divorce in Oregon is that irreconcilable differences between the parties have caused the irremediable breakdown of the marriage.
