Hard to file "presumptive death" Iain, my attorney explain to me all the consequence, you need to ask a copy of death certificate from National Statistic Office, so she cant get one because obviously he isnt dead yet, second the court will gonna see his (her husband) relatives to confirm where is he, so do you think that the relatives will agree to her that he is dead, third if they find he is still alive that is falsification of documents presented in court (although we know a lot of falsification stuff in PI can be made)
When I attend a hearing I heard that case, a wife filing a case "Presumptive Death" a lot of question asked her, and the court is thinking that she only just want to get married again, that is why?
Your last paragraph is acceptable enough(my mentor Iain)
