What is the name of your state? I am in Arizona on a working visa for a year now. I was married in the Philippines.I have an 11- year old son who' s still in the Philippines. My husband has been working in the Middle East for almost 10 years and he gets to go home in the Philippines once a year and stays for a month. It' s been so tiring and depressing. Twelve years of marriage and we are still strangers. I want to get a no- fault divorce. Is this possible?What are the procedures?
Why is your son in the Philippines rather than with you or his father?
You can certainly get a divorce, but custody matters regarding your son cannot be handled by the US courts, because your son is not physically a resident of the US.
Personally, I would recommend doing alot of research regarding your son before taking any further steps, and that would be based in the law in the Philippines.
I would recommend using an attorney for the divorce. There may be complications if your husband isn't willing to fully cooperate.
