My wife of 25 years left to the united states, 3 years ago. We were married in Belgium and we had 4 children all registered as US citizens with the us embassy in Brussels. I can not get divorced in Belgium from her without a lengthy and costly procedure. Meanwhile I have obtained a copy of her new marriage license from the County in Texas where she lives. In that document she used her married name and not her maiden name to get married.
Surely this is not legal to start with as it involves a false statment as to her identity. Secondly she is still married technicaly we have not gotten divorced so this is also according to the law illegal.
I would like to know to whom i should address myself to commence legal proceedings, or file a complaint.
thanks

First, contact the District Attorney's office in the county where she lives. Report the matter to them.
If they don't help you, try contacting the Texas Attorney General's office for help. Good luck.

File your complaint with the Embassy in Brussels. If for some reason they don't want to do anything, go to the State Department about it. Let them know that she is married to someone else, and let them know where she is. Bigamy is illegal anywhere in the world. Especially in Texas.

And how do you know she didn’t get divorced in Texas (or another state)? Once she was a resident of a state, she could file for divorce there even though she was married in another country.
Would your country recognize the divorce? I don’t know. Would the U.S. recognize it? Absolutely.

Contact the Texas State Attorney General's office. They will tell you what you need to know.

you need to get in touch with the clerck of courts office in texas where she got married is not just illegial where you are form but it is illegial here too. she will be proscuted under the laws of texas and probabbly under the law where you live too she will probaly serve time here and there you need to contact someone as soon as possible and get you a lawyer he can force her to pay for you divorce under the grounds of adultry. when she got remarried she proved an open and shut case of adultry. there fore she is responsible to pay for your divorce and it will be granted within days not months. adultry is the fastest divorce that is how i got mine from my ex husband and the state made him pay for it. legally in the states she is not married to he new husband because she is not divorced from you. hun wake up and smell the coffee every bill she makes can make you credit go bad you need to contact the clerck of courts office in the county in texas she was married in before she runs you name.
