i have a question for JOM:.. if the filipina divorced her husband outside our country then how can she get a cenomar at the nso?... coz quite confuse me about this matter.... bcoz i read a post here that the embassy is requiring her a cenomar/cemar....

im not sure if this will answer your question but here is my own experience. my 1st marriage was also annuled in the phils , i secured a Cermar which shows both my 1st marriage and 2nd marriage ( to my USC husband). then i also secured a certificate of marriage showing the "null and void" annotation at the side , this annotation will support my cermar proving that my 1st marriage has already been annuled. if you get a cenomar/cemar from the NSO, it will show your previous marriage and you can always bring your divorce decree to support it ( im not sure if the us embassy will honor it but you can always try).

hehhee ok thank sa info. but i am asking po kung halimbawa nag-undergo ng divorce hindi ng annullment... pero thank u sa post ha para malaman nila ang about jan sa bgay mong info.... :thumbs:

Walls1010, I see in your timeline that your consulate is Hong Kong. Were you a Hong Kong resident and did you apply for your K1 visa at the US Embassy in Hong Kong? If yes, then that answers the question why you were issued the visa. You played your cards right.

sige lang sis kung yan ang paniniwala mo.... want to remind you na walang record sa nso ang kasal namin ng asawa ko ngayon.

Sis your first marriage is still considered valid in the Philippines because divorce between Filipinos, wherever secured and even if with the consent of both spouses, is not recognized under Philippine laws. In other words, as far as the Philippines is concerned, the second marriage is null and void...

"Our Wedding Prayer"

Lord,help us to remember when we first met,and the strong love that grew between us.

To work the love into practical things so nothing can divide us

Grant us a Love that grows stronger with each passing year.

We ask for words both kind and loving

and for hearts always ready to ask forgiveness as well as to forgive.

Guide us to overcome every challenge

and keep our dreams pure to each other always.

Dear Lord,we put our marriage into Your hands.Amen

If your heart acquires strength, you will be able to remove blemishes from others without thinking evil of them.

TO: JOM,

question lang po kung hindi pedeng kasuhan ng bigamy ano po ung civil damages charges na pedeng magproceed?... ska kung nagdivorce po outside phil ano ang pinapakita nilang clearance sa embassy na cleared sila d2 sa pilipinas..? kc di po ba kahit naman magdivorce sa ibang bansa eh ung kasal nya d2 andon pa rin sa nso?... pano sila nakakapasa kung wlang divorce d2 sa atin...?

I was talking about laws on Human Relations under the Civil Code of the Philippines under the following articles:

Art. 19. Every person must, in the exercise of his rights and in the performance of his duties, act with justice, give everyone his due, and observe honesty and good faith.

Art. 20. Every person who, contrary to law, wilfully or negligently causes damage to another, shall indemnify the latter for the same.

I was talking about MORAL DAMAGES which the second wife can file against the man.

About the divorce issue, just remember it is the US government , NOT the Philippine government who has the discretion to approve or deny any visa entering the US. Since the US government recognizes divorce and if they honor a divorce decree obtained by a non-US citizen for visa process purposes, it is their decision , not the Philippine government. Our government may control our departure from the Philippines, like the CFO requirement but they don't have any say when it comes to approving or denying the K1 visa, or any other kind of visa for that matter to enter another country. If that country of destination approves the visa, our government can't say much about it. A fugitive for instance can be approved going to the US and our government cant do anything about the process, however it can hold hie or her departure.

If the process is reversed, the US government cant also say much if the Philippine government approves a US citizen's application for a visa to enter the Philippines.

Removal of Conditions :

August 16, 2010 - Petition received by USCIS Vermont Center

August 20, 2010 - NOA1 received

Facts (based on your post):

1. Your friend got married in the Philippines.

2. Your friend went abroad.

3. While abroad, she divorced her husband left in Pinas.

4. She found a foreigner boyfriend, she's probably back now in the Philippines, as the boyfriend is about to file K1 right?

For sure, you'll get something from this:

Article 26 of the Family Code provides, to wit,

All marriages solemnized outside the Philippines in accordance with the laws in force in the country where they were solemnized, and valid there as such, shall also be valid in this country, except those prohibited under Articles 35(1), (4), (5) and (6), 36, 37 and 38.

Where a marriage between a Filipino citizen and a foreigner is validly celebrated and a divorce is thereafter validly obtained abroad by the alien spouse capacitating him or her to remarry, the Filipino spouse shall have capacity to remarry under Philippine law.

Remedy ng friend mo in order for her to obtain her capacity to remarry, ay pa-annul nya yong kasal nya IF sya ang nag-initiate ng divorce.

Better yet, speak to a lawyer na lang in order for you to get a legitimate and sound legal advise.

Goodluck to your friend.

"joms" information seems to be the most accurate... so walls1010, curious lang ako sa batas natin, you had your first marriage in the philippines, tapos you got married to a non-filipino a 2nd time in hongkong, which you did not report to the NSO. na-annul ba yung first marriage mo dun sa pinoy bago ka humingi ng divorce decree?

(ang pinsan ko kasi in the same situation so hindi pa sya makapag decide kung ano ang gagawin)

Just a simple analysis, no offense meant to walls1010:

If walls1010 previous husband is a filipino and they got married in the philippines then her 1st marriage is still valid. In case her previous husband get hold of her present marriage certificate (2nd marriage), he could file a case of bigamy to her since she is still legally married to her husband in the phillipines. Though a divorce had been filed in hongkong, it is not recognized in our country.

Technically, she is committing bigamy under the philippines law.

I'm no lawyer and i could be wrong...

No, the filipino husband can't file a bigamy case against her because she got married to the USC here in the US. Criminal cases are territorial, if the act is not committed in the Philippines, our criminal courts have no jurisdiction over it.

hahahaha Correct ka dyan kabayan! Kasama to sa BAR question na nainkwentro ko last year!!! Ang sarap ng Law no!

I am enjoying this thread.... :dance:
