Go see a local family attorney about this. The attorney will determine where it needs to be filed. Usually, that is where the people last resided together, not the state they were married in.

You need to talk with your attorney about this, and only your attorney. You know, the one appointed to represent you. I didn't know that inmates have access to the internet to ask questions like this. You should know that this is not private, it is not confidential.
