4. If the petitioner and the respondent still live together, can the petition be served on the respondent by the petitioner directly?
You cannot directly serve your petition on the respondent even if you and the respondent still live together. Rule 14(3) of the Matrimonial Causes Rules (Cap. 179A) prohibits the petitioner from serving the petition himself or herself. You must either serve the petition through the help of a third person or by post.
