What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
My husband and I were married in the Philippines while he was a permanent resident of United statest. We had a child and he filed for US citizenship. When he was granted citizenship he immediately petitioned me and our son. Now me and my son became a permanent resident and my husband and I had another child who was born here in the US. A lot has happened ever since and now I want to file for divorce. Question is where do I go to file for a divorce? How much does it cost? For now we both are unemployed. does this mean that if I get a job, I would have to support him? Because it looks like to me that he is not planning to find a job. He hasn't been working for almost 6 years and he has not even try to look for a job since he got laid off 6 years ago. I have been supporting the family for a long time until I lost my job last year. If we get divorced, is he required to support the kids? What are the pros and cons if I file for divorce?
