Did you know if you are below 23 for female and below 25 for male , you are advised not to contract a marriage as you do not have suffiecient discretion at that age to get married.
Deception, homosexuality and other signs of psychological immaturity are grounds for the termination of your marriage ties.
In the cannonical court. you ask how long have you been separated. Usually at least two years of separation is required and signs of irreconcilable differences.
Read and answer the questions as outlined in a book on church annulment. then a filing fee down of five thousand, progress payment until 30 or 35 thousand pesos.This is the fee that goes to the tribunal. Of course you have additional expenses of bringing your witnesses, incluing a psychologist and related expenses like a canonical lawyer reviewing your answers etc. The civil state annulment may cost more depending on the ground.
List down 5 witnesses for each (husband and a 5 witness list for the wife )is submitted, preferably with the affidavit of testimony is submitted.
