Divorce is Not Allowed in the Philippines / myLot

We don't have divorce in our country but we have an annulment of marriage. I am not so abreast with the annulment process. Well, I'm happily married for 25 years so I have no full knowledge about it. Do you have any idea about annulment of marriage?

I remember someone from the Philippines telling me that. It is very interesting to me.

We have divorce here. I don't know much about annulments. I'm happily married and hope I never have either!

I feel sad for these people, but happy for those who wanted to get away from bad partners. Most people are still not open minded towards divorce.

We have the divorce in Italy, but an annulment of marriage is different. It can only be done by the Catholic Church for serious reasons. The marriage is declared as it never happened.

Annulment is costly. I think you will spendore than hundred thousand for the process. If your marriage is annulled, you are free from your marriage bond but not allowed to remarry. That's what I know about it.

I'm not sure how annulment would work in you country. I imagine that some kind of a case for fraud on the part of one of the couple would have to be established. My wife and I have been happily married so we've never looked into it.

I had no idea that there was no divorce in your country. I wonder what the grounds for annulment are.

I really have no full knowledge about this but one thing I know, it is a very expensive process so that you'll be free from bondage of failure of marriage.

Yeah, I have a not so close friend attorney who is so good in handling the case of annulment.
