How do I file a civil union divorce for gay couple who are living in different states?

Kimberly Demetrice French
Answered by attorney Kimberly Demetrice French (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Law Offices of Kimberly D. Moss, PLLC
Your question indicates that you are in Texas. I'm not sure where your estranged partner is, but Texas does not recognize a legal marriage between individuals of the same sex. If you two own property together or have children together, you will probably need to seek remedies to address those issues in court. However, you may need to get formally divorced in whatever state you were originally married in because there technically is no divorce option available for gays and lesbians in Texas. Speak to a local attorney about the particular circumstances surrounding your marriage to determine what the best course of action is for you to take.

An immigrant can adjust status to get a green card after marrying a US Citizen on ESTA but ONLY if the immigrant's intent CHANGES after entering the US to wit: from only wanting to visit upon entering the US to wanting to get married and remain permanently after a few months visiting.
