How is length of marriage calculated in Texas?

Robert Jensen 'Bob' Matlock
Answered by attorney Robert Jensen 'Bob' Matlock (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Mackoy, Hernandez, Jones and Woods LLP
The length of the marriage runs from the marriage date to the divorce date. Social Security payments are controlled by federal law and it would be wise to contact a lawyer concerning your questions related to those issues.

Seeking a divorce from a Canadian citizen not living in the United States

Hilary B. Miller
Answered by attorney Hilary B. Miller
Divorce lawyer at Hilary B. Miller
Generally speaking, you should proceed with a divorce. The fact that you have not lived together is essentially irrelevant and, again, generally, a divorce will be more readily, and less expensively, available. You will need to commence the divorce action in the state where you reside, not where you were married. There is a procedure for serving absent defendants, regardless of where they reside. An attorney can assist you in this process. Get an attorney.

How long do you have to be married to someone to obtain their house that’s only in their name?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Lucio Antonio Montes (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at The Montes Law Firm
If the house is in the boyfriend's name and he had it before the marriage, it is considered separate property. She may be able to kick him out for a short period of time, but in the end the house will return back to the owner. Upon divorce she may have a claim for reimbursement, but that is not likely to happen if she is only married to the guy a short period of time. She will not be able to marry him, kick him out and then keep his house.
