Divorce isn't such a tragedy. A tragedy's staying in an unhappy marriage, teaching your children the wrong things about love. Nobody ever died of divorce.

Question

How do I proceed with a Russian annulment of marriage? What are the requirements for annulment? What are the requirements for divorce? What is the timeframe for completion of either? What are the costs involved? \nStats: \nRussian wife in Novosibirsk\nShe has one kid\nI have 3 kids\nmarried Jan 2003\nwaiting for your reply

Answer

If I understood you correctly, you and your wife don't have children from that marriage – your hildren and her child are from previous marriages. Where did you register your marriage? Who possesses the Marriage Certificate? \nMarriage annulment is performed either by offices of ZAGS if both spouses want to divorce or by the courts if one of the spouses wants to divorce. What is your wife's position towards the divorce? \nHere is the situation regarding the payment. I am asking you to answer my questions and ask me any other questions to clarify the situation. I am also asking you to send me an electronic copy of your Marriage Certificate.
