Can your spouse use a tourist visa to visit the US even if you are married in the US

[SpencerF]

My wife is from Taiwan and we recently got married in the US. Right now I live in the U.S, (I should also mention that I am an American), and am still at college. My wife is in Taiwan but wants to come visit the United States. We are unsure of whether if the customs at the airport will know that she is married to me, even if we haven't applied for immigration or greencard. Right now a greencard seems out of the question, because I am still in college, we just want to know if she can still visit on a tourist visa without stirring suspicion that she going to try to stay.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Chances are, US Immigration wouldn't know if her marital status has not been previously mentioned on any documentation. She would have to disclose being married to a USC.. aka "who are you visiting.. my husband" if asked by CBP, but doesn't have to volunteer any information.

If you find someone who could cosign Affidavit of support with you for your wife, she getting immigration status as LPR (greencard) would not be a problem.
If you could find someone who would sign for you, apply fiance(e) visa for your wife and remarry in US again withing 90 days. She should always closure about the marriage.

Or you just want to go through visit visa, let her apply her B2 visa herself, her way with some of her relatives . Since she is a Taiwanese, getting herself B2 visa wouldn't be a problem.

meni: Please refrain from posting misleading information on this forum. OP is married, therefore fiance visa is not an option here.

Thanks for pointing out. But I think he needs to consider whether they made their marriage legally or not. Because I understand that USCIS will not approve marriage without marriage license for church married couple. Sorry if I said wrong because I am not a christian and I don't understand well about marriage in US.
