		<description>Salam...
Sir...I am married to an American National, the Islamic marriage took place in kuwait... Now, my husband is trying to file a petition to get me a spouse visa... we received an advice that the Marriage certificate (with english translation; it has stamp at the back of the cert.) must be authenticated first in the DFA and eventually file in the National Statistics Office...so that the marriage is valid...
Is it correct?
Could you please guide me of the things that we should do...
Thnks a lot...</description>

		<description>I&#039;m a catholic, and my bf is a muslim. Before we met, he was first married to a muslim woman because she was bearing his child. He explained to me muslims believe that the marriage was necessary for the child to be healthy. They were separated immediately after the marriage ceromony because the bride&#039;s parents did not like him. They do not have marriage contract or other legal papers to support their marriage. Since they were separated, he and his family said that we can get married with no difficulties because both parties agreed that it is best for them to live separately because of the feud of their families. He and his parents cannot even see his child. Was it necessary for him to still accomplish divorce papers eventhough there were no legal documents. What if we got married, will his ex-wife have rights or any claims to disqualify our marriage? Does her disapproval have any bearing? Will I be considered as his first and legal wife if his marriage was no longer valid?</description>

		<description>Fatima, I must apologize if I can&#039;t address your concerns. That would call for a legal advice, which is prohibited here. I hope you understand. Good luck.</description>

		<description>Dear sir,

I want to be clarified and ask your assistance/legal procedures on what PROPER THINGS SHOULD I DO for my case.........

I am working here at United Arab Emirates for almost 5 years now as an Accountant.. I&#039;ve been married in the Philippines for 22 years but it was not a successful marriage... Ive been the financial supporter of my family since my husband is not working oftentimes....I was forced to work abroad and I was not able to go back for my vacation for more than 4 years...when I had my vacation last April, I examined myself if I still have feelings w/him.. I didnt let him touched me .. &amp; I decided to stop everything between us.. We had a fight (of course) I told him I want a separation already....I didnt had time to discuss it more or had legal papers ... When I came back here, I decided to be a Muslim... I embraced Muslim because of my dear friend who offered me marriage.. He is also married man but willing to give me marriage.. I already inquired here of the procedures &amp; they can let us be married.. but something is bothering me still.. Is there a need to have legal separation still between us.. me, being a Muslim already &amp; that he is a Christian.. If so, please guide me on how to do it... I already discussed these matter with my children &amp; they perfectly understand our situation... that we cannot live together anymore, no respect at all.. 

Anticipating your response...

Thankyou..
