  1. Thank you, we will look into it. I didn’t know that she can apply for divorce here in the USA even though they only married in the Philippines.
  2. We've already consulted a lawyer through my cousin, and it seems she would require a significant amount of time and money for annulment. However, at 73 years old and with no plans to remarry, we simply seek the correct answers for the questions on the N400 form.
  3. She was living in the Philippines before I petitioned her, but since January 2019, she has been living with me and has never returned to the Philippines. She visited my sister in Japan for two weeks in December 2023 since she had work.
  4. Thank you so much; that's what we've figured out to do. Since my mom isn't planning to remarry, there's no reason for her to invest a lot of money and time in annulment. All she wants is to clarify the truth regarding her naturalization.
  5. As of my last update in January 2022, divorce is not legal in the Philippines. The Philippines is the only country in the world, aside from the Vatican City, where divorce is not legal. However, annulment is an option for couples who wish to end their marriage. Here's an explanation of annulment in the Philippines: The cost of annulment in the Philippines can vary depending on several factors, including the complexity of the case, the legal fees charged by the lawyer or law firm handling the case, court fees, and other expenses associated with the legal process. Here are some factors that may contribute to the overall cost of annulment: Legal Fees: Lawyers typically charge fees for their services, which can vary based on their experience, reputation, and the complexity of the case. Some lawyers may charge a flat fee for handling an annulment case, while others may charge an hourly rate. Court Fees: There are various court fees associated with filing a petition for annulment in the Philippines. These fees may include filing fees, transcript fees, and other administrative costs required by the court. Documentary Requirements: Obtaining necessary documents such as birth certificates, marriage certificates, and other supporting documents may involve additional costs, such as fees for obtaining certified copies from government agencies. Psychological Evaluation: In cases where psychological incapacity is cited as the grounds for annulment, the court may require a psychological evaluation of one or both parties. This evaluation may incur additional costs. Travel and Miscellaneous Expenses: Depending on the location of the court and other factors, there may be additional expenses related to travel, lodging, and other miscellaneous costs incurred during the annulment process. It's essential to discuss the potential costs involved in an annulment case with a legal professional upfront to understand the financial implications and make informed decisions. Additionally, individuals should inquire about payment arrangements and any potential additional expenses that may arise throughout the process. My mom is 73 years old, and her estranged husband is 80 years old now. We haven't heard from him in a long time. My mom doesn't plan to spend a lot of money on annulment, especially since she has no intention of getting married again. She sees no purpose in it at this time.
  6. I cannot respond because I was busy reviewing the paperwork for my mom. I petitioned my mom. I cannot respond because I was busy reviewing the paperwork for my mom. I petitioned my mom.

  7. My mom was petitioned, and she has been working and living here for 5 years. However, before she came to the United States from the Philippines, she was married but separated. Because divorce was not allowed by Philippine law, she did not have any chance to complete the paperwork. Additionally, due to the expensive process of annulment, she decided to leave it as it was. We haven't heard or seen him in a long time. Now, my mom is applying for naturalization/citizenship. There is a question about whether the spouse, separated or not, has to fill it out. Do we need to answer that?
