Unfortunately, there is not a simple answer to your question. Each county is under its own set of rules during COVID-19. Many counties are waiving the requirement for a prove-up appearance for agreed divorces. However, you still cannot get divorced in Texas until after the "cooling off" period. In Texas, this is 60 days from the date of filing for divorce. An attorney can file and draft your agreed paperwork. Should your county still be under quarantine after the "cooling off" period, then they can also draft the paperwork necessary to meet the prove-up requirement by submission.
