You or your spouse must have lived in South Carolina for at least a year before filing for divorce there. If you both are residents of South Carolina when you file, then the residency requirement is just three months. If you are in the military and stationed in South Carolina on active duty, you also may file there, as long as you meet the length-of-time requirements.
