Texas Divorce – How long to stop living as man and wife?
I am getting a divorce in Texas. My wife is willing to sign the final divorce decree but she wants to be with me until the divorce is final. I know there is a 60 day waiting period after the divorce is filed. But is there a minimum time that you have to stop living as man and wife before signing the final divorce decree in Texas?

You are correct, there is a 60 day waiting period before its final. However when states have that "rule" of separation its usually required that you are living apart for a specific amount of time before you divorce…. meaning its a requirement to be allowed to divorce.
I didn’t see anything in Texas state law that says anything about living together while filing for divorce…. You can read more about the laws here:

Hope this helps…

you dont have to stop living with each other at all it is you decison the divorce is just saying you dont want to be married you can still stay together
No. Just the 60 day wait. I promise, I really know what I am talking about.
Living with her during that time is NOT a good idea.
