| Subject: | Disputed will | |
| Question: | I am married for 4 years.We are 4 members in a family,me my husband,my FIL & my MIL.The problem is the house we live in was bought 30 years ago by my FIL but because he was a govt servant at that time he could not show his income so he bought the house in the name of his father.My FIL has a younger brother married with 3 kids.They used to stay togther but from the last 12 years they have been staying on first floor which was built later after the fightings started between my MIL and my FIL younger brother wife.We have one main door for which there are 2 keys given to both the brothers and also there is provision of seperate entrance. This lady is very smart and is really in good books of her FIL.My MIL & FIL are very sweet,docile.Now my FIL's father has made a will which says that ground floor and half the terrace is my FIL property and first floor and the other half terrace is my FIL brother property.The problem is that in that will it is also written that we cannot sell the ground floor,if we sell it it will be given to the younger brother.The will is registered and nothing can be done.We even cannot give it on rent.We cannot leave the property also since it is worth lacs. The problem is we really want to sell the house beacuse the place we live is very dirty,roads are very narrow,parking is a big problem,no fresh air,no playground/park for children. Pls take note that we cannot even talk abt all this to my FIL's father otherwise he might change the will all togther.We also cannot leave my MIL and my FIL alone... Pls advice ASAP.. Thanks SB India

Until your father in law'father dies the will does not come into effect.
The main issue comes in that you only have a single entrance and house that has been split into two rather than two separat |

If the will stands as is, and you FILs father were to pass away, the property will be divided into half (as explained). I am surprised at the clause that says, you cannot rent your portion - as far as | |

| Question: | We got green card in four and half years ago. My mom is alone in India. My mom had been diabetic for the last 25 years. Because of recent setbacks in the family, she has high BP. Her health is delicate.
My husband says he does not want to go back to India when we are just about to get citizenship. Is there any thing I can do to bring her here. She is 63. Can my mom get medicare/aid.? What will be the precedure? Should I wait untill we get citizenship and green card? If I go back to India and stay for few years, I will not be able to get my citizenship right?

Yes you are right if you leave the US for a period of a few years then you will not be able to get your citizenship as you will not have met the residency criteria.

| Question: | Dear ammas,
Thanks for doing this wonderful job. You have always helped me. I am permanent resident here, having 3 yr old son (US Citizen), and want divorce from my citizen husband. I am looking for some answers before taking any step-
1) My husband sponsored my green-card that I received in Jan, 2004. Will my green-card be safe and out of danger as I have already completed 2 years? If I get divorce now, can I still be eligible to apply for citizenship? That I guess, I would be able to apply after 3 yrs of getting the green-card).
2) Will I have any problem to get my son's custody? I don't want to loose him. I am economically independent.
3) In future, if I want to sponsor someone (as my husband), can I do that with my permanent resident ship?
Thank you.....

| Question: | I am writing to you with lots of hope. I am not sure there can be any legal proceeding in my case. But ill explain the situation to you. I am 28 yrs old Bengali girl and was in a relationship with a 29 yrs old Malalyee Christen. I was in this relationship for 2 yrs. We met in UK and he promised to get married to me, he even convinced me to talked a loan in UK for £15,000.00 (Its a joint loan). We still have our joint account in UK. Now when we are back in India, his parents are not agreeing to our marriage, and he wants to go separate way, he doesn't even want to pay the loan. All that he had promised, he just wants to break all the promises and walk away freely.
Is there any way I can file a case against him for the mental trauma he has caused to me and my family. Can this be a breach of physiological contract.
Please help.
Regards,

As long as loan is concerned, kindly note that he is jointly liable to repay the same. You may write a letter to the bank to this effect so that neccesary actions maybe taken against him. Furthermore, | |

Whilst I have answered this is the marriage section too I will re-iterate this here.
Legally there are two separate issues. One is the clear financial issue of the joint loan. This is a financia |

Dear Madam,
Firstly, you will not be able to file a case for him causing mental trauma since the marriage laws cannot hold a verbal assurance as a agreement. He can cite any reason for not wanting |

I actually would not bother altering the names if I were you. When you get a new passport made and need to renew it you can probably alter the name then as per the instructions. Since you are choosi | |
