Texas Divorce Without Children: The Simpler Path
A Texas divorce without children skips the SAPCR and parenting plan. Learn which forms you need and why the process is faster and cheaper.
Divorce Without Children in Texas
When you and your spouse have no minor children together, a Texas divorce is simpler — there's no SAPCR, parenting plan, or child support worksheet. The full process is on our Texas divorce hub.
The Forms You Need
You need the Original Petition for Divorce, a Waiver of Service (or Citation), a Marital Settlement Agreement covering property and debt, and a Final Decree of Divorce (Agreed).
Why It's Faster
Without children, there's no custody dispute and no child support calculation. Once your spouse signs the waiver and the 60-day waiting period passes, you attend a short prove-up and the judge signs your decree.
Why It Costs Less
DivorceReady's without-children package is a flat $89.99. The court filing fee (varies by county) is separate and non-refundable. There are no subscriptions or hidden fees.
Property and Debt Still Matter
Texas is a community property state, so you still divide community property and debt. Your Marital Settlement Agreement records the division you and your spouse agree to.
