Legal Question in Family Law in India
Mutual Consent Divorse and settlement
My husband is in US and I am in India currently, we have been married for a year. I know we need to live separately for one year to file divorce. My question is - Can I claim any monetary settlement? I was in a good job here, I quit my job, left everything and went to US with him as a Dependent on H4. So am I eligible for any monetary settlement in Mutual Consent Divorce?
