It should only take about a week if you have done it right. You should have had an attorney do it for you though. There are actually services out there that are pretty cheap that will do the paperwork for you as long as your not taking it to court. Thats what I would do it speeds up the process because you got everything in there and the judge doesnt have to send it back for any mistakes.

Papers get filed with the court. If you have been separated for 1 year then it is very simple. irreconcilable differences.
A court date is set ( usually the divorces are done in batches) when there is room to hear them.
You should check with the court house to see if it has been booked yet..
Only one of you has to go to court, because there is no contesting.... A decree Nisei given at the time of the divorce and then the divorce becomes final after 30 days . You Will get a copy of a decree absolute ....Then it is legal for you to apply to get a marriage license..This is how it is in canada....
