It does not matter where you married, it matters where you reside.  Since you reside in California, you can file here and serve your spouse in Illinois (she can be served while incarcerated). If you wish to divorce in Nevada, you would need to contact an attorney or court in that state to see what their rules are since states have different laws with regard to divorce. In California, a divorce takes a minimum of 6 months and 1 day from the date of service.  It can take longer.  In most cases, similar to yours, the respondent does not respond and the divorce becomes a 'default divorce'.  Depending on your issues, or lack thereof, your divorce may or may not require a hearing.

You are not able to communicate as needed by lawyers here. So, take your matter to the Family Law Facilitator and do it where communication will be more productive.

You do not lose and property rights by moving out of the house. Most divorces involve one party or the other moving because of conflict between the parties. I suggest you hire a lawyer.
