Do you any kids in this relationship? If you have kids it will take 2 years to get divorce but if you don’t have kids then it will take 1 year separation before you submit divorce file. Your pre settle status should come in 5 working days and as i know divorce can not effect your status once you have pre settle status.

I can take upto 2 years to get divorce if you have kids in this relationship if no kids then requirement is 1 year separation before you apply for divorce. So the time you get divorce you will be eligible for settle status. Because your divorce can not effect on your pre settle status if you are married +3 years and 1 year together in uk.
