Hi, I am new to this site and not sure if anyone can help me.

I have petitioned for divorce without the aid of a solicitor, which was fairly straight forward. However, my husband has not completed, or returned to the court, the acknowledgment of service, within the 14 days specified on the form.

I know that he has received the petition as he has spoken to me regarding issues that he has with the statement of arrangements for children.

I am unsure as to what my next course of action is. The letter from the court gives three options about what to do in this situation, however, my limited legal knowledge means that I don't understand what they are, or indeed, which is best.

Please could somebody help me. Thanks.

If he won't co-operate at all you can swear an affidavit that you know he has received it... my partner had to do this and then the divorce went ahead...
