how true is it?

How true is it if my USC husband married me here in P.I but he is still considered single in the US? Does that mean that he can get marry in the US even though he already married me ? I heard that since he lives in a different country or state, his marriage with me here in P.I won't matter?

Not true. The marriage certificate makes you married anywhere on earth. If he married after marrying you and not divorcing first he is a bigamist and in the US thats a crime.

He is not considered single in the US if he marries else where. Again married is married.

That is not true at all.

An interesting question, considering the other thread.

Marriage is marriage no matter where you got married. IF the ceremony was legally binding in your country he is married everywhere in the world.

Is this a suspicion or do you have information that he is/is intending to marry? He is only permitted one wife at a time no matter where he married.

Let me tell you something I am sure about. One LT couple got married in the USA. After they came back to their home country they never registered their marriage at the appropriate institution and never showed their Marriage Certificate to their employers. They paid taxes as single and husband was bull...itting in public he is not married.

There is an obligation to REGISTER your marriage even if it happened in a foreign country, but what if they don't? I think it happens.

Girl, as I saw your post in another thread, I want to tell you: go to the USA to see your husband to make sure nothing fishy is happening there.

[Morningmist 76]

Since he did kind of get the spouse visa, there is a paper trail in the US that he is married. However something tells me your husband was under some delusion as to what that visa entailed. Probably thought he'd own you in the US, hide you in the basement and not that once you land here you'd be a free agent and that triggered some second thoughts. Probably killed his madam butterfly fantasies.

I agree.

Something fishy here. Like rotten trout.

It may be required in some countries, like the Philippines, but not required in the us. It's up to each citizen to keep tract of if they are married or not.

In the Philippines, if you get married abroad, it must be registered with the consulate having jurisdiction over the area. Then it gets forwarded to nso. K-1 visa holders go through this.

Do you have a government issued marriage certificate on earth? If so your married everywhere on earth.
