Hi CWOL, we don't have a legal separation agreement in place but I have been in contact with a lawyer. At the minute it is suggested to work something out civilly which we have done. Where we are, there is 'cool down' period of one year before divorce can be iniatiated. She is having the kids more at the moment just because I am very busy at work.
I guess she wants her passport as she has moved all her stuff out, she can't take the kids abroad without a signed letter from me as they have my surname, not hers.
