In a case of divorce by mutual consent, the terms and conditions are decided mutually between the parties.Thus, the matter with regard to maintenance should be mutually decided by you and your spouse.The petition for mutual consent divorce shall be drafted based on the terms decided between the two of you.
 
You and your spouse can jointly file a petition for mutual consent divorce in the district family court.
 
Petition for mutual consent divorce can be filed at any of the following places:-
 
  • Place where marriage had taken place
  • Place where husband and wife last resided together.
  • Place where the wife is residing at the time of filing of the petition.

As per the Hindu Marriage Act, such petition can be moved jointly by both the parties under Section 13B of the Act on the grounds that:
 
  • have been living separately for a period of one year or more,
  • have not been able to live together and
  • have mutually agreed that the marriage should be dissolved.

The Court shall then record the joint statement of the parties and pass a first motion order giving a time period of 6 months to the parties to resolve their dispute, but in case the parties are unable to resolve the issues within the stipulated time, the Court shall pass a decree of Divorce
