Document background
The Marital Settlement Agreement For Simplified Dissolution Of Marriage is specifically designed for couples in Canada who are seeking an uncontested divorce and have reached agreement on all major aspects of their separation. This document is used when both parties wish to dissolve their marriage with minimal court intervention, provided they meet the requirements for a simplified dissolution under Canadian law. The agreement typically includes comprehensive provisions for property division, potential support obligations, and mutual releases, while complying with both federal divorce legislation and applicable provincial family law. It's particularly suitable for couples without complex assets, who have been separated for at least one year, and who have either no children or have already established agreeable parenting arrangements. The document serves as a key element in expediting the divorce process through the Canadian legal system while ensuring all legal requirements are properly addressed.
