Hey.
I have a problem.
My wife and I got married in Las Vegas this summer, while she was here studying. We met through school.
My wife was previously married, and now legally divorced. She legally divorced him in her home country because they had been living apart for over 2 years. I'm just pointing that out so that there is no misunderstandings, she was legally divorced when we got married.
When we got married in Las Vegas however, she did not state that she had been previously married in her home country. She did not list her previous marriage or the name of her previous spouse and the dates they were legally divorced. We got married and everything was fine.
It wasn't until some time ago that she told me about all of this and of course I was angry she didn't tell me to begin with, but we've worked past that and now we're just worried as to what will happen with the I-130 form which I already submitted. I ticked her marital status as 'married' (which we are), and to left the previous marriage section blank (name of spouse and date of legal divorce). Which I did because at the time I didn't know about her previous marriage.
So my question is, without this sounding too shady;
What will happen next? With the I-130 form? Will USCIS cross-check with the government from her home country and find out about her previous marriage? If yes, will it become a problem for us even though we are legally married and she was legally divorced at the time of our marriage? Will they make us re-file the I-130 form or do something else?
Please advice, I'm a little worried as I love her to death but we're unsure as to what to do about this.
