Hi Readers. I need some advise if this is true to USCIS re: expired tourist visa

A woman came here in USA as a tourist visa from Philippines She's married and with children on month of May 2011, and her 6 months tourist visa expired November. She said they hired a lawyer to extend her visa to be able to stay for longer period with her live in boyfriend she met here in USA. and they lived together while she's here. although her visa was expired Nov. 2011, she again paid the lawyer for another extension for 2012 before her 6 months tourist visa expires November. She and her US Citizen live-in boyfriend applied a marriage licensed in City Court for them to get married. The court issued them a marriage licensed? what valid Identification? is Philippine passport valid for ID? for expired tourist visa? and can be married here in USA? and so they got married this month of October, according to her she filed a divorced paper and send it to Philippines and her husband in PI signed it. Now she is married to a US citizen, her husband applied for her adjustment of status? to be able to get a SSN? for her to work and also apply for drivers licensed? How true are these to marry a US citizen and adjust her status although her tourist visa expired? In other words she was an illegal alien, undocumented status. they claimed that USCIS lawyer helping them to adjust her status. How true is this?

I need some answers please.... thank you.

Your post is a bit confusing. It is very helpful to readers if you use paragraphs to separate the thoughts.

Was she legally divorced before she obtained the US marriage license / was married in the US?

I'm confused about her sending the divorce paper to the Philippines and have the 1st husband signed it. Was it finalized without her showing up to the court for hearing or trial? :blush:

I think she sent her husband divorce papers to dissolve their Philippine marriage.

There is NO divorce in the Philippines so even if our husband signed the divorce papers, it doesn't terminate your marriage.

If she wants to legally terminate her Philippine marriage, she has to file for ANNULMENT.
