If you file for divorce, a summons will be issued requiring him to file an answer or, if he doesn't, face being defaulted and a divorce decree (including child custody and support) being entered granting you what you ask for.Quote:

You just file where you are at now, You hire an attorney, file for divorce, try to find him, most likely do the notice as a publication in news paper, and you have a court hearing and get divorced, This is common and happens all the time
No problem if you are indian then as indian law if there is no whereabouts of husband for seven years then he is considered as dead person and if you wish to remarry you can marry legally by submitting evidences on affidavits of few known persons that he is really not found anywhere during these eight years and no need to seek divorce you can get remarried without divorce. And if after you remarry your former husband appears he cannot claim you as wife
And if you do not wish to remarry you will be considered as his wife for life time legally.

In the US IF the person decides to have someone declared dead it is a LOT more complicated than you have stated.
