The Div1702 form, utilized within the State of Minnesota, plays a critical role in the dissolution of marriages involving children. It serves as a comprehensive document for couples seeking to end their marriage through a joint petition, detailing specific information about each spouse, including names, addresses, and social security numbers which are handled with additional confidentiality measures. Its intricacy extends to the verification of residency requirements, checking on military service status, and affirming the irretrievable breakdown of the marriage. It goes further to address the physical living arrangements of the couple, existence of any related legal proceedings, and the presence of any protective orders. Importantly, the form delves into specifics about the children involved, covering aspects from living arrangements to addressing the needs of adult dependent children. Additionally, it touches upon pregnancy and the acknowledgment of any children from other relationships, ensuring that all facets that could impact the dissolution process and subsequent agreements are thoroughly covered.
