We’ve been married for 6 years and have a child who is 4 years old. . We’ve been living in separate rooms for 4 years now. And recently wife moved out of the house. 4 months ago. Law states , 1 year separation is required. Can we still file for mutual divorce. Even though it’s been 4 months since my wife moved out ?

Yes you can file mutual divorce petition in court. If you are Hindu according to section 13 you can file a mutual divorce petition. If you are in others on a special marriage act section 28 you can file a petition.
