How to apply for a Conditional Order.

Before an application for the Conditional Order can be made, it is necessary to wait 20 weeks from the date the divorce application was issued by the court. If the application for divorce was made online, a notification will be sent once the Conditional Order can be applied for. If the application was made by post, a Form D84 must be completed.

Either applicant can apply for the Conditional Order, if the application for divorce was jointly made. The court normally takes a few weeks to review the application and once approved they will set a date for the Conditional Order to be pronounced.
