Hi, my wife and I married 6 years ago in Northern Ireland. We opted to marry in Belfast as it was quicker and easier than doing so down here. We've never actually lived in Northern Ireland or any other part of the UK. Anyway, we are now thinking of getting legally separated, not divorced, just legally separated. Are we correct in believing that we have a choice in what jurisdiction we want to have this done, in NI or Ireland (ROI)? If we have the choice, in which jurisdiction would be it be easier, faster and cheaper to get legally separated in? I am guessing NI. I am also guessing that a legal separation agreement from NI is valid in Ireland. It would be a mutually agreed separation. No kids involved. A simple straight forward separation agreement. Not a judicial separation.
By the way, how does someone "un-separate", does the couple simply start living together again as husband and wife or do you need to complete forms indicting that the former agreement is null and void? Thanks.
