People often want to know how long the process for a declaration of
nullity will take. Unfortunately, there is no simple answer. There are
different types of processes, each of which requires a different amount of
effort and time to complete. For help in determining which type of process is
required, see the guide to
type of case needed.
Below
is a chart which details the steps of the Ordinary Process. This
process takes between 12 to 18 months to complete. Other processes which rely
on documents, such as the Lack of Form Process and
the Ligamen Process can
be completed in 6 to 8 weeks.
Regardless, of which type of process is needed, the Tribunal is unable to
guarantee when the process will be completed.
