What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? PA.
I just found out 2 weeks ago my wife of 1 year (girlfriend for 5) lied about her job status. Since the day I meet her she told me, my family and friends she was an RN. I went into the marriage with the understand that my partner had the capacity to make the same or near my salary. Her lack of income has put a huge burden on out life styles and relationship. Before the marriage I asked her to quit her job and find one willing to pay her the salary and RN should get. She told me after the wedding she would look for a new job. At the same time we were getting married I purchased a house with the understand we would all live there (she has two kids also whom I love dearly) but she would help with the costs of the house. Since we have moved in there has been money issues which is a major cause of out separation. Two weeks ago I found out she is not an RN.
Is this grounds for an annulment based on fraud? She lied to me for 6 years. All that time I had a mental image of what out lives would be like and have financially burdened myself with the expectations that my wife was capable of making more money. The results of the lies have cause us to become bitter and ended with us separating. I feel now like I was nothing more then a back account for her. That subject has come up multiple times in our relationship. She has since said she is going after me for spousal support. Given the reasons for the separation I don't feel she deserves any.
So my question still stands. Is this grounds for an annulment based on fraud?
