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

Hi Karina,

I went on your website and I was wondering if you could check the validity of my girlfriend Russian divorce certificate with the reference number.

Because I want to marry her and go through a long and costly visa process, and because I am not living in Russian, I want to check the validity of the certificate and if possible check the integrity of the information: date of divorce and names.

Do you provide that service? If not, could you advise me?

Answer

Dear Daniel,

I understand, the security is important. I saw too many marital scams... I will be more than happy to help you. Please provide me copy of her divorce certificate and copy of your passport.

I will be glad to help you.
