I’m filing for an uncontested divorce from my husband. I already filed the dissolution of marriage but the judge said I needed more.
So I went online and found the Affidavit as to military service, Petition for dissolution of marriage, Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage-agreed, and a Summons to be sent to him. Can I file an amendment? How do I finish this?

I would not suggest trying complete a divorce on your own, if you have never done one before there are a lot of rules and procedures that are going to be unfamilliar. Usually the judge will stop you and tell you to get an Attorney before going too far into the process. In order to adfise you on how to proceed, I will need to see a copy of the order.
