Where do I file?

You need to live in Michigan for 180 days before you can file here. If you are in a big hurry, you MAY be able to file in Illinois, but you will need to check with a good lawyer there first. Good Luck.

Will I have to share my 401K if I filed for divorce?

Answered by attorney Helene Ellenbogen (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Law Offices of Helene Ellenbogen P.S.
If none of the 401(k) was earned during the marriage, it is separate property which the court must first characterize and then can consider if necessary to achieve a fair division. Likely in a short term marriage like yours, the court would not give him any part of it. However, any part of the 401(k) that was earned during the marriage is community property and will be divided. I don't know what you mean by "my house was build 4 months after I met him." Did the two of you live in the house during the marriage and pay the mortgage with earning from the marriage (anything either of you earned during the marriage). If so, he has an equitable interest in the house. If you had it built prior to the marriage and paid for it in full prior to the marriage or with funds you had from before the marriage, then he can not claim any interest in the house, unless he contributed funds for any improvements, etc.
