I'm a 19 year old female and i live in Florida.
I was married last July to a man in New Hampshire. Now there is some confusion on whether or not we are actually legaly married since the JOP who had married us told us that he was not going to give our marriage license to the town hall and that we must do it ourselves. Well we never did and we ended up splitting up. Additionally, I was tricked into marrying another guy for immigration purposes only. Now I am trying to get a divorce but what scares me is the fact that my first husband just told me that i am legally married to him. My mother is going to check this out but if it is true then I am married to 2 people. Like i said i had no clue until today that i was possibly married to the first guy and so I remarried another guy in a different state but have since split with him also upon finding out that it was all a trick for him to become legal into the country. I have been totally pushed away by INS on this matter. They are telling me that i must go to their local office and meet with them some 2000 miles away up in Boston. Miami INS also insists that I must show up in Boston.
Since I am married to 2 people i'm afraid of getting into major trouble for bigamy. Does the first marriage mean that the second is annuled?
Could you please assist me as I am just trying to straighten my life out at this point.
Evidently I am going to need some legal council at some point regarding this, but I have been unemployed for several months and have no funds at all.
How can I begin to do things "smoothly" by myself and avoid getting in trouble for bigamy?
Thanks
