Well if your mom wants a divorce, then she should formalise it. Then during NVC process, she can submit that she got divorce and submit documents as required.

There is no divorce in the PH. Only annulments. And they are expensive and take years to finalize. 

 

Does her being married affect her petition application?

For this you will need an attorney ... fraud is grounds for annulment in the Phils.

Once in the USA your mom could proceed with a divorce, it would not be recognized in the Philippines as neither party is a foreigner, but for the rest of the world it is accepted.

 

This "fact about the fraudulent marriage" will not affect your petition for your mother.

Some random thoughts - as i understand, your mom's husband (probably, ur dad🙄), has a pre-existing marriage, registered with the PSA (NSO), before he and ur mom got married. 

 

FIRST, the marriage is null and void - that is bigamous marriage. And, you need an attorney for that - a good one 🤣. Your lawyer may file d case before the RTC where ur mom resides. It may take 3 years before the judge renders decision. There is no reason for ur case not to win, supposedly.

 

SECOND, an important question is its effect on her petition (but as said in d previous comment) it does not have any effect on the petition. A DNA aftrall, will be required by the embassy aftr the interview.

Really?  Why would you assume that is her dad?  That seems like a ridiculous comment to make.  Even old people can marry more than once.

Thank you all for your answer I appreciate it. And no he is not my father. And I just want to help my mom since she really want to have it voided to be official. I would never bad mouth him because he cannot defend himself but I can say he is abusive to my mom but love is blind and now she finally see it ( hopefully cross my finger), she is scared to do it while she is in the Philippines, right now she is with me here in the USA. Is there a way we can do it without her going back home?

She can file for divorce in the US.  The divorce will be recognized everywhere in the world except the Philippines.  

The only way to get an annulment that is recognized in the Philippines is to file for it there.

She would need to meet with a good attorney, but she does not need to be there for most everything after that.    

 

Do she have a good friend that could keep a handle on things for her there?

You guys are awesome thank you so much! I talk to my nephew and he will ask the attorney on how will the process gonna be and how much it will cost, hopefully if just the invalid marriage will be cheaper ( crossing finger) And hopefully possible for her to be here while it was in the process.
