Divorce question

Answered 4 years ago

Hi everyone. Single mum here who receives 0 assistance of any kind from ex husband. He is a thorn in my side and has burned a lot of bridges through his behaviour over the last two years.
I am desperate to divorce him and cut that final tie, I’ve been saving as I found out it costs $850 to file!
I was told that if you receive some government payments, you can get a reduced divorce fee.
Rumour mill or truth? I’m not having much luck researching and if anyone can direct me in the right direction, I’d be most grateful.
Hope you’re all safe from fires. We are surrounded 💔 hence my mind needing distraction!

I only paid $300 because I have a healthcare card. If you file online, you just need to upload a pic of your card.
