About sa kids nya sa ex wife nya d sya pumapalya ng suporta monthly may sustento ang first family nya.

do not file presumptive death when you know for a fact that the wife is not dead. you will be liable for perjury. the wife can also simply file an affidavit of reappearance and your marriage will be deemed dissolved.

if the wife files a case of concubinage you can use the separation agreement as a defense that she consented that they live their lives separately and without interference, meaning she consented to however your husband decided to live.

as for annulment, there are many possible grounds but the ground has to exist. it is better that you discuss this with a lawyer who will interview and see whether one really exists, including psychological incapacity.

thanks po sa reply.
To be honest mas gusto ko po munang ikonsulta sainyo ang ctwasyon nmin bgo kmi kumuha ng lawyer alm nmn po ntin n mhirap humanap ng taong pgkktiwlaan un iba po ksing lawyer sbi ng frend nmin eh pineperahan lng khit mdaling ilaban ang kaso pptagalin para may kita cla..
Pero buti n lng po at may site n ganito.. lahat po ng advice nyo eh patas sa lahat ng tao kya po mraming slamat ulit..malki po ang naitutulong nyo.

------->Nasa ibang bansa po ang partner ko ngaun kung mag-fifile sya ng annulment kelangan po b n lgi syang um-attend sa hearing?.

Nabasa ko isa sa mga topic dito n ung ex husband nya ay hindi pmupunta sa hearing nila para maipkita n hindi n tlga interesado ang ex husband nya sa marriage nila.
Inicp ko kung pwede dn b nmin gwin un? Kasi po ofw ang partner ko at once a year lng sya nkkauwi dito sa pilipinas

Pano po kya mkkpg file ng annulment ang partner ko ng hindi naapektuhan ang work nya sa abroad?

Ano po b ang ibig sbhin ng psychological incapacity??..anong mga cases po ba ang cover ng psychological incapacity? ksma din b dito ang hindi pgiging faithful ng lalake mula ng kinasal sya sa babae?.. ganun po ksi ang kaso nila mula ng kinasal eh hindi po nging faithful ang lalake sknya at alm po ung ng babae at ngaun nga po eh ngkron n cla ng kasulutan n legal separation.

Thanks po ulit!

to initiate the case for annulment, your partner will have to sign his petition before the philippine consulate or embassy and send it here for filing in the court.

he should appear at least twice, at the pre-trial and to testify.

unfaithfulness, by itself,is not sufficient to establish psycho incapacity. it has to be shown that he has a psycho problem that is grave, incurable, existed prior to the marriage and it prevents him from fulfilling the essential obligations of marriage. aside from a lawyer you will need a psychologist to examine your husband and his wife to determine if there is psycho incapacity.

good luck
