Hi All,
Please help me with sugession.My name is Steven . I got married in March 2003 and i came to know it’s a wrong choice as every thing went wrong. we broke up after marriage due to changes in our opinions. She is not staying with me for more than 6 months .
Now i have my medicals in my hand asking my wife to undergo medicals along with me which is no way possible. I don’t know if the case officer will agree for only me gone through medical
examination. I need your generous help on this issue as i cannot get my medicals done for my wife. Please advise me how to justify this with the case officer. I will be very thankful for your suggestion.
MILLION thanks for Help....

When you say "broke up", what do you mean, exactly?

You should seriously consider engaging a registered migration agent with experience in dealing with these cases to assist you. A free newsgroup/forum is not a place that you can expect to get specific advice.

Steven,

It's quite complicated if you two are legally married but yet do not function like a couple. It's best you sort out your marriage in the eyes of the law, as it's not something you should leave dangling.

Hope it works out for you.

Dear Peter,
I tried my best to make things possible and i am searching now for an alternative how to proceed as i have been waiting since one and half year and spending 3500 SGD and dont want to just let go of it. I am trying to contact migration agent not sure how far things will work i really appreciate your suggestion thanks a lot

Steven,

SGD3500 is quite a bit, if that didn't include an agent's fees and the cost of medicals/police checks and their associated courier charges.

Hi Peter,
I did not go through agent so i saved some money it does not include courier and attestation and medical charges. Now the agents here are charging 200 SGD per session i just called one and donno how to proceed and let you know i am not legally divorced so i dont know if things will go bad all the once will go waste.

Steven,

I'll say this again: make sure your agent is a registered migration agent. You can check out an agent's registration information at:

If you're married in Singapore, you should note that getting a divorce within the first 3 years of marriage isn't such a simple task.

Peter,
Thanks for that i checked with one of the registered agent only .

yes its very much problem to get divorce when the marriage is less than 2 years . Not sure how i should ask the agent for this i will end up paying more and more if things will get bad .

Any idea on contacting the case officer on this issue ( i am thinking of this as last choice) and explaining the situation because i finished my medicals will they be able to concider if all other thing are okay.
