Marie Kreamy asked:
My spouse and I are planning on getting a divorce. In our state, you have to be separated for 12 months before you can start the legal process. However, due to the economy, we decided to live separated under the same roof. Will this count towards the separation or does separation mean that we have to live apart from each other? How do you prove this?
