I recently received a sealing cancellation request from my ex-wife. We have been divorced for 10 years. I have a few questions that I haven't found any solid answers to so I'm hoping these forums could possibly shed some light on them for me.
1. How long, after the forms are submitted, does it take for the First Presidency to make a decision?
2. Obviously if the sealing is canceled I will be notified, but what if the sealing cancellation is denied? Will I still be notified or will my ex be the only one notified since she is the one applying for it?
3. No covenant breaking actions caused the divorce. She simply decided that she didn't want to be married anymore. I think more than anything it was because she was a bit immature (she was only 20) and missed her family too much. How likely is it that the First Presidency grants her this petition? (I had heard that if there wasn't any abuse, neglect, or adultery the First Pres is unlikely to grant such a petition.)
4. I haven't remarried. So if the First Pres gives the OK for the cancellation does that mean I'm eternally screwed unless I find someone else to be sealed with? I didn't break any covenants, I didn't even want the divorce, so I can't imagine a loving Heavenly Father condemning me for that.
Anyway, thank you in advance for your responses.
