I am separated from my husband for the last 1.5 years. Would like to know if I want to file a divorce with child (girl) maintenance, what is the procedure if he is not earning at all.

you need to prove court his earning for maintenance. rest divorce has different grounds
this will include if any ancestral property is available. better contact a lawyer or me personally.

Hi, First of all if u r separated with your husband more then one year in that manner u can file for divorce.
But important thing is u both mutually want divorce or only u want divorce? But if u want divorce u can file and also can claim for maintenance for ur child.
basically maintenance depend on husband earning , on that manner court decide how much u will get.
Thanx
