um. I never been Divorce before. but Have you try go to Divorce lawyer ask them a question. that might helpful. Divorce Lawyer can help with you how to Divorce Petition papers. Good luck.
Here this. I found off from website.
How do I serve the divorce papers? If a lawyer is handling your divorce, he or she will have the divorce papers served on your spouse. If you are using "do-it-yourself" forms, the instructions will tell you what you need to do. Your spouse can agree to sign papers that say he or she has been served. Otherwise, your spouse must be served by either the sheriff or another adult (not you or your children).
If you are getting welfare or certain other public benefits, the Support Enforcement Division (SED) will also have to be served with the divorce petition. If you do not have a lawyer, or if the divorce forms you are using do not have instructions about this, you can call SED to find out how to serve them with the papers.
What if I am served with divorce papers? If you agree with all the terms of the divorce as listed in the petition, you do not need to respond. If you want to challenge the terms listed in the petition, you must file a written answer (called a "response") with the court within 30 days after you were handed the papers. Contact a lawyer or your local legal services office to learn about what you can do. There is a court fee to file a response in a divorce case.

∙ 11y agoWeather you personally are handling your case or have an attorney dealing with your legal matter, the best way to serve your documents out of state is through a private investigator or process server located on the city or county where the defendant resides. If you don't know the exact place where the defendant may live, a private investigator could also help you in locating the person.

∙ 14y agoYou can serve an incarcerated spouse papers in prison in the normal fashion. Additionally it is not necessary for them to sign (if they contest) because you can still get a default divorce. There are jurisdictional issues and other elements that make a prison divorce more complicated than a regular divorce that I would really encourage you to seek legal aid.

And I don't know that YOU can do it yourself. If you a trying to get divorced without an attorney, you are making a big mistake. Hire one and let him help you through the process.
