if widow(er) is a status, that is what you would select. otherwise it is single. divorced does not apply at all. you will need a certified copy of the death certificate.

Hello Soft, condolences to you and your wife's family. Debbie is right, you should select the widow option. I know someone who have the same situation and she didn't have any problem with the paper. 

 

Goodluck to you.

Sorry for the bad news the samething happened to me sometimes in 2008. I went through hell but yours is better because you have entered already. I will advice you to google about a widower petition and study and understand it so that you can know how to go about process. Please do not relax and think everything is OK or get a good immigration attorney that knows about widow/widower petition not all the immigration attorney knows the process. Good luck

My condolences. Using an attorney is no excuse to just sit back. You’re doing the right thing by seeking out information yourself. Attorneys have been know to screw up.
