I've met a woman from Russia who has a green card and lives in the US. She and her husband separated some years ago, and she brought her children with her. She has never divorced him, but would like to do so now so we can be together. Can you do this for her in Russia? Does she have to travel to Russia to do this? Thank you for your advice.

I am filling out paperwork for K1 for Fiance. She is divorced. I need to know what date I put down on paperwork for Final Decree of divorce. These are my choices: Entry made in Registry Book 18 August 1997 or Date of Issue of Certificate of Divorce 13 Oct 1997 or Resolution of Kolpinsky Court came into effect on 25 July 1997\nThank you

Hello, I have been married for under 2 years with an Estonian / Russian woman. We married in England. We lived together in England but have now separated. I believe my wife is now in Moscow but I cannot contact her (she doesn't answer emails / phone calls). A mutual friend tells me that she won't give me a divorce and that i will have to wait 5 years to divorce (law in England is 5 years without consent) I would like to know if it is possible to divorce her in Russia without her consent? I have been told that this is possible and will take 4 months. If it is possible I would like to know how and how much will it cost. \nthank you for your help\nPeter

I and my wife are both Russians and were married in Leningrad. We have a 13-years old son. Currently we are Green Card holders and live in San Diego. I decided to go back to live in Russia where we have apartments (privatizirovannaia kvartira gde mi propisani). My wife refused to return to Russia. She filed a false Domestic Violence case against me to get favorable child custody conditions. She plans to marry another person. Can I file for divorce when I come back to Russia and what will happen if my wife refuses to attend the court session in Russia? What are my chances to receive 50/50 child custody? \nThanks in advance for your answer. You can send it back in Russian, if you want.

I am a divorcee with 3 children before marriage. I have the Russian marriage certificate. Consummate of marriage vows has not taken place. She has cell phones which have been disconnected. Sometimes I can reach her at parents phone. She has not given me her residence address. She tells me she is sick and needs alot of money for operation. But she will not produce a doctors letter. \nThere are always some reasons why she cannot complete paperwork for immigration. \nI have sent her money to help with immigration costs but still not have received any paperwork from her. \nMy request for a scan with a my last name on passport has been denied. \nMy repeated request for communciation have been denied. \n I was told that a Russian divorce is cheap and there is a less waiting period then marriage. And it is done through ZAGS office. \nCan you answer me a few questions about this procedure. What is the time frame to which this can be completed? Is she entitled to maintenance or child support? \nWhat are the costs involved in this procedure? \nPlease reply with any information as it would be greatly appreciated.

I am a Russian citizen who married an English citizen in Russia. My husband has dissapeared over a year and half ago. I live in Tel Aviv as I made aliah last year. I have no idea of his whereabouts, but want to divorce him. In Israel it proves to be practically impossible without his presence and consent. Can I divorce him in Russia without his consent and presence?
