I am a Dual US and Foreign Citizen. My wife is Non US Citizen/Resident and only has a tourist visa to the US. We were married and will get divorced in that same foreign country. Most possessions (house, bank account, etc) are in the US and were obtained by me before the marriage. Since the marriage and divorce took place out of the US to a never US Citizen or Resident, what is she entitled to? Obviously the rules and laws of the foreign country apply here, but would US laws and US held money/property apply to our situation?
If you are divorced in a foreign country then you follow the laws of that country, unless child support and similar issues are unresolved AND the children are in this country.
