MI am a foreign citizen and married in india end of last year. I was in india for a month, and initially the person to marry was another lady. in the last moment she backed out which caused alot of stress for my parents.
the relatives then came together and introduced another lady who was also searching for a marriage prospect and we all agreed mutually.
I was in india only for 30 days and then with all decisions, the date was set to be mid month.
We pushed and got the marriage certificate done because i could not extend my stay. Also, gave them a copy of the marriage certificate.
the inlaws were refusing to provide full documents in time but after convincing they did which allowed us to start the process of the marriage certificate.
I came back at the end of the month and things were good, and then while here i asked her to update her passport info to show spousal info so that it becomes a strong legal document to support her application to come.
Things started souring there where she and her family were refusing.
PS. my mom was still in India but the wife wanted to continue her job to which we agreed. but we asked her to keep visiting. She visited a total of 5 days in 3 months.
Now my mum has also returned and she is alone in India and now they are forcing why we haven’t done any progress in the application.
I told them we need all legal docs in order and we get them started.
She became rude and fought we me, my sis my mum. we got elders involved and tried to calm the situation but after a few days she reverts to the same
What should i do. I think they are using me to come abroad and also trying to get some alimony if we decide to end the relation.
They are not very well to do financially and i have been sending some money every month. but now i feel like they are just using me.
She is very disrespectful to me claiming i just work remotely and asking her to do everything. Also my grandparents are back home and i have told her to focus on her self for now because i am scared she will outburst and speak rudely to my grand parents

KYeah you need a lawyer and you need to look into dissolving the marriage. That’s how this works. You *might* have grounds to seek an annulment but india tends to be very restrictive about those. More likely you’re looking at a divorce unless you can somehow show the marriage was void to begin with.
Seriously who TF gets married without spending atleast some time getting to know a person? Stop letting other people make decisions for you, yeesh

KTalk to a lawyer. The paperwork and testimony you offer will need to be very specific. And done in a timely manner. This is not something you can DIY. Get a personal law advocate who specializes in divorce. I’m assuming your marriage was either under SMA or under Hindu law and the way you navigate annulment will vary based on the precedents for those.

So due to your wedding getting cancelled you married a random girl within 15 days? Am I getting that right? Who the hell does that is this pre 90s india..?? I mean common hope this is fake… But given what you said annulment could be your route..
A genuine question Were you more worried that your holiday and plane ticket will go to waste so you did all that??

UBefore people say who does that- a lot of Indian parents raise children abroad like they were raised and expect the same type of marriage. And kids do it because they share same values.
There was a post someone made before. And this is a scam going on currently in India targeting non-Indian citizens.
See the link: https://www.reddit.com/r/LegalAdviceIndia/comments/1cgpsb1/30m_us_citizen_married_to_indian_citizen/
So what the woman does in these types of cases is they do not want to work on the incompatibility part. They are educated so know how to abuse the system and file a bunch of fake cases like 498, 507…etc. Tbh, all of the fake cases get flushed out. The key part though is that they will file DV crpc 125 maintenance. The issue here is that if you do not pay, the court will attach your properties. If you do not have any assets in India, the court will attach your ancestral properties. The women do it for 2 reasons: 1. Revenge 2. To get a higher settlement.
The sad truth is that if the woman was not so demanding to begin with, and becomes part of the family she could have had a great life. But she decides to listen to her friends/ “well wishers”. Forgets how to be a sensible human and ruins the relationship over a simple apology. Unfortunately, Indian laws are 🚮 and the system is broken.

UShe can get an India court order and can come for properties in Canada. But Canadian law will say GTFO as long as you’re divorced in Canada. If you’re not, it’s a different story.

MHow would i get divorced in Canada, as she has never left india. Also, the consent ? as she will definately take action if she gets wind?

DHi. Lawyer here. Sorry to hear about your situation. It’s rather sad how marriages have become a joke these days and trusting people is even harder. You can try discussing the issue with her and see if it can be resolved amicably, without involving any elders. But incase things seem totally out of line, then you’re the best judge of the situation. Your marriage was registered under HMA or SMA? Considering you’re a foreign citizen. And what are the next steps you’re contemplating? You can reach out to me for a discussion, should you wish to. Thanks.
