Dear client

Greetings to you

You need to file mutual divorce physically only before the court of India

There is no online filing options in Tamilnadu

If you got married in India you need to file in India only if you have registered the marriage in India

Any further legal help feel free to contact me

Filing of divorce online is not available in Coimbatore. There is no harm in getting a divorce in US subject, the couple being eligible in invoke the courts at US for divorce, as different jurisdictions require a period of residence within their jurisdiction to apply for divorce there. Also laws of alimony and separation of assets differ in USA and India. In India you can file at the place of marriage and physical appearance is mandatory in India. So depending on this you can file for divorce in USA or India.
