Legal Question in Family Law in California

Can my wife file a summary resolution?

My story:

My wife wants to divorce with me. She does not own any estate. I bought (own) a house before marriage. No improvement to the house. I put my own down payment and pay mortgage and all home expenses (etc. utilities�) That is my separate assets (but no equity in it) we married for 2 years, no children, we agree that neither spouse will ever get spousal or domestic partner support we have an agreement that divides your property and debts. assuming we both meet all other requirements.....

Does she qualify for a summary dissolution when we divorce?

After she and I exchange the forms (160, 142) will she need to provide any verifications or other documents and do I need to provide anything during the process given that I would go for a default case meaning I am not going to respond her petition since we have signed agreement? Again we both want to divorce in the simplest way and save money.
