Community Property - Idaho is a community property state. What does this mean for you? In general when you marry all of your income becomes community income, unless it is generated from a separate income source such as an inheritance or alimony from a previous marriage. Anything you purchase with this income becomes community property. Also, any savings of community funds becomes community property. Any debt that is secured based upon the community's income becomes community debt. Your separate property can be changed into community property through a legal action called transmutation. This occurs when you gift your separate property to the community. Not all states are community property states and community property law varies between states.
Grounds for Divorce in Idaho - Idaho recognizes no fault and fault divorce. There are two grounds for no fault and those are irreconcilable differences and when the parties have not cohabited for 5 years or more. Fault divorce consists of adultery, extreme cruelty, willful desertion, willful neglect, habitual intemperance, felony conviction and permanent insanity. If you choose anything other than irreconcilable differences you must prove the grounds with credible evidence. The most common divorce action is irreconcilable difference.
