Serve Your Spouse
Even in an uncontested divorce, you must formally serve your spouse. In many cases, your spouse can sign a waiver of service to simplify this step.
Wait for the Mandatory Period
Oklahoma has a 10-day waiting period. Oklahoma has a mandatory 10-day waiting period for divorces without minor children (43 O.S. § 107.1). For divorces involving minor children, the mandatory waiting period is 90 days from the date the petition is filed (43 O.S. § 107.1). These waiting periods cannot be waived except in cases involving domestic violence or other extraordinary circumstances as determined by the court.
Receive Your Final Decree
Once the waiting period ends and the court approves your agreement, you will receive your final decree of divorce. Some courts require a brief hearing; others approve by mail.

Common Mistakes in Uncontested Divorces
Not putting your agreement in writing
Verbal agreements are not enforceable. Always create a written settlement agreement filed with the court.
Forgetting about retirement accounts
401(k)s, pensions, and IRAs earned during marriage are marital property. Address them in your agreement even if one spouse doesn't claim them.
Incomplete financial disclosure
Oklahoma requires financial disclosure within 30 days. Hiding assets can void your agreement.
Skipping proper service
Even if your spouse agrees, improper service can invalidate the entire case. Follow Oklahoma's service rules carefully.
