i want a divorce from my wife but i live in the country Panama and she lives in the united states, what is the process of filing for divorce?
Typically you would file for divorce in your country of residence.
You will have to file it in the same country you come from.
You can divorce anywhere. You have to follow the rules in place where you file for the divorce. This is normally the state/country in which you live.
No. There is no law stating that you have to live apart from your spouse to file for a divorce. :)
No, I don't think so. The marriage would first have to be REGISTERED in Panama and for that he would need the original marriage papers. Then, he could "divorce" you and undo the Panama marriage. Still, it would only be a valid divorce for Panama - not the US. If the last place of residence where you 2 lived is California (you never lived in Panama with him & registered the marriage there), the divorce would need to be filed in California for it to be a divorce that the US recognizes. You can check this info, but I'm pretty sure it's accurate.
