Hello all,

I have a question. I got married 5 years ago, it did not last. My wife left me for some other guy 4 months later. I then discovered she was pregnant for the guy. I used to live in the US but left because of my situation. I have not seen her for about 5 years. I have no contact info for her. She has since moved. I don't even know if I am divorce. To cut a long story short. I am applying for a B-2 visa. On the application I put single for martial status. Is this OK? Is this something they really look at? What sort of stuff do they check when you apply for b-2 visa? I have since moved back home for 5 years also. She was an alien resident by the way. I don't wanna get denied.

Thanks in advance

If you didn't do a divorce you are still married. I doubt she filed & got an uncontested divorce approved. Best bet would be to contact the court house of your last place of residence. Unless you hold the divorce decree, you are still technically married until you can prove otherwise.

So I must include this on the application? Or is it not a big deal?

It is a big deal. Having a USC wife living in the USA, even if long term separated, and not disclosing this fact would be material missrepresentation, and could lead to a lifetime ban. Don't do it!

You are better off putting some effort into finding out of you are indeed divorced (unlikely, but possible). Google her name and address, contact the county courts near where she lived, try and contact her. If not divorced, look into getting one.
