Annulment is a legal procedure that dissolves a marriage as if it had never happened. A marriage can be annulled for various reasons depending upon particular circumstances and state laws. However, a marriage may generally be annulled in the following situations: 1) where the marriage between the parties is prohibited by law; 2) where either party was impotent at the time of marriage; or 3) where either party had a husband or a wife living at the time of the marriage, unless they cohabited after the death or marriage dissolution of the former spouse of such party; or 4) where either party was a ward under a guardianship and was found by the Court to lack the capacity to contract a valid marriage. Please see specific state for details and/or differences.

Q: My partner is divorced. He was not Catholic at the time of his first marriage but his spouse was, and their wedding was performed by a priest in church. During the marriage, he converted to Catholicism. We're both currently practicing Catholics and hope to marry one day.

I have Medicare A and B. Because I was a high income earner in 2009, I am paying a high premium for Medicare Part B. However, I just retired and my income has reduced dramatically. Do I still have to pay the higher Part B premium?

To determine your Medicare income-related Part B rate, Social Security reviews your most recent income tax information that is forwarded from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Social Security calculates your Modified Adjusted Income (your adjusted gross income and tax exempt interest income) to determine if you are required to...
