Asked by Ralph
I am a PR from India (married for 9 years). Me & my wife purchased an HDB flat 4 years back (MOP is over). HDB is jointly owner though I made all contributions including the initial payment and the monthly loan payments.
Recently, we decided to divorce under Indian law. Wife is already moved back to India and does not plan to return.
I have a few questions
1. How can I remove ex-wife ownership on the flat? Should I need to buy over her share ?
Since she has not contributed anything financially to this flat, am I able to get her ownership transferred to myself without any payment of cash if she is willing? What is the procedure?
The divorce is filed in India. So is there any legal complications for this transfer of ownership ?
Will ex-wife's presence in Singapore be needed to complete this? What shall be my option if she is not ready to travel to SG
TIA
