Getting a divorce in Colombia

julivelez says on Jan 13, 2006, 00:46:

I recently read in El Tiempo that they've introduced an accelerated procedure where you (and your spouse) just have to go to the notary, pay like 30.000 pesos, sign a statement and wait for about a month. You can only go this way if you don't have any children and the divorce is by mutual agreement.

I'm sorry too Actually I sent out my I-130 last month and I received my I-797 this week which mean I can now apply for the I-129f. Without getting into much details my wife has been a real bit%$ lately. I am not a rich guy and have always stated that and I do what I can. She doesnt have much of a life being that she doesn't work or go to school and all we seem to do is argue now. I feel like I am giving much more in the relationship then I am getting out of it and I am getting tired of it. I now I'm not perfect but I feel another woman would put more effort into the relationship and criticize me a lot less. I am 28 my wife is 22, I originally didnt believe she was ready for a serious relationship/marriage she tried to prove me others which she did, but now I'm not so sure.

I think you are giving up alittle easy. Colombian likes to molest, my wife molest me all the time but I would not trade her for a million dollars. Well let me think about that for a minute..... well if someone offered me a million dollars I might think about it.

When I filed the paperwork for my wife she was a pain in my at ss all she did was complain, nothing I did was right. Well I ended up waiting for about 1 year fighting with immigrations and finally getting her here. Things have not been perfect but I am glad I did not give up either. It is just too easy to throw in the towel. Try to work around it, it only takes alittle effort.
