Hello guys,
This question is asked by a friend so I'm posting it as below:
A friend of mine divorced his wife before he entered Australia. Both husband and wife were on Permanent Residency and the wife was sort of a dependant of her husband and got her Permanent Residency through her husband.
Now it has come to his knowledge that his wife has arrived in Australia and he is wondering whether she can engage him in family court or not.
The following are his queries:
1. Divorce was given on foreign soil and divorce letter has a date before my friend entered Australia. Could his ex-wife any way legally demand financial support or anything?
Thanks
