Basically, an annulment dissolves your marriage as though you never married your current spouse in the first place. Once your annulment has been granted, both you and your spouse are returned to your previous social status, e.g. "divorced" or "single."
Anyone can file an annulment in Nevada. If you were married in Nevada, you can file an annulment here without being a resident.
If you were married outside Nevada, you are required to establish residency in Nevada before filing your annulment here. You are considered a Nevada resident after living in Nevada for a minimum of six weeks. The court will want to know your current Nevada address and an Affidavit of Resident Witness will have to filed to prove your residency. A "resident witness" is another Nevada resident willing to sign the Affidavit of Resident Witness. The affidavit states that he or she knows you to have lived in Nevada for a minimum of six weeks before filing your annulment case.
If you are in the military and Nevada is listed on your LES and you have a resident witness, you can also obtain an annulment for your non-Nevada marriage without being physically present in Nevada. If you were married in Nevada, your LES and resident witness are not required.
