father has stopped financial support. father is working abroad.

Atty,

My husband is working in Australia for more than 4yrs and he has stopped sending financial support for more than two years already. Meron po siya kabit sa Australia and she has sending us threats noon. This happened nung unang taon niya sa Australia. My son, who is a consistent honor student, had an emotional breakdown dahil po sa ginawang pagbawas ng padala ng asawa ko at sa mga masasamang text messages ng kabit niya. my daughter, already in her 3rd year in college, has stopped going to school dahil hindi na enough ang pinapadala ng asawa ko.

Nagfile na po kami ng civil case noon pero wala po nangyari. we were told na mahirap po siya makasuhan dahil nasa Australia siya. wala din daw po mangyayari kahit humingi kami tulong sa POEA dahil direct hire po siya. Huminto po siya ng pagpapadala ng humingi kami tulong sa HR ng companya nila at ng nadeny ang residency application niya dahil nagsend kami copy ng kaso niya. Minor pa po ang bunsong anak ko ng huminto siya sa pagpapadala. hindi na din po namin siya makontak mahigit 2years na. kada tumatawag kami noon sa kanya hinaharang lahat ng tawag ng kabit niya ang mga tawag namin. yung kabit lang po ang nakakausap namin at hindi ang asawa ko. hindi din po tumatawag samin ang asawa ko.

Wala na po ba paraan para makasuhan ko ang asawa ko at mapadeport ko siya sa Pilipinas? kanino pa po ba kami pwede lumapit? I desperately need your advice. Sana po sumagot kayo. Thanks in advance.

very difficult situation. i had a prospective client with a similar situation. i found out that there is a Child Support Agency in Australia who can take legal action against deadbeat parents.

They have diplomatic channels with the Philippines, but it appears they require a court order to be issued by a Philippine court before they can take action against the parent in Australia.

You can read more at their website. I'm afraid that's the extent of my knowledge.

Hubby has no face book page? email? how about his place of work?

meron daw po siya facebook sabi ng anak ko. pero iba po ang last name na ginamit niya at mga pictures niya at ng mistress niya ang nakalagay. my daughter tried adding him pero palagi lang iniignore. we also cant send messages in his fb. his yahoo mail is being accessed by his mistress. never po namin naabutang nagonline ang asawa ko. one time yung mistress ang nakakachat namin. sinubukan ko na din na tawagan siya sa work ilang beses na. nakakahiya na nga sa manager niya kasi kelangan pa muna siya ang makausap bago namin makausap ang asawa ko. pag nakakausap namin siya noon, nagagalit siya and madalas binabagsakan lang ako ng telepono. sinabihan na po ako ng anak ko na huwag ko na siya tawagan pa at nagawa ko naman na ang parte ko para makausap siya pero siya po talaga ang ayaw na ng kahit anong connection sa amin.

regarding po sa child support, my son is now 18. but when my husband stopped his financial support my son was still a minor, 16. pwede pa din po ba ako magaaply for child support?

and meron din po bang paraan para makakuha ako ng financial support sa asawa ko? financial support for the wife? i was diagnosed with cancer and had undergone therapy last 2009. pero sabi po ng doctor hindi pa sigurado kung magaling na ako. and kelangan ko pa po bumalik sa hospital after 5years para macheck kung magaling na ba talaga ako. nahihirapan po kasi ako sa gastusin sa mga gamot.

and recently lang po nagkaproblema kami sa lupa na kinatatayuan ng bahay namin and we need to pay a huge amount of money or else madedemolish ang bahay namin. pwede din po ba kami makahingi ng finacial support para po doon?

malaki po sumahod ang asawa ko kaya alam ko pong kayang kaya niya sagutin lahat ng kelangan ng pamilya ko. gusto ko lang po malaman kung may paraan po ba para maobilga po namin siya sa pagbayad ng mga iyon?

maraming maraming salamat po sa pagreply.

and ano po bang paraan ang pwede naming gawin para mapadeport ko siya dito sa Pilipinas? maraming salamat po.

aside from what i mentioned about the child support agency, which seems no longer applicable, I'm afraid there is no other remedy I can think of.

If you are able to monitor your husband, then you can file a complaint for economic abuse here and if he arrives, report him.
