Immigration status of prior spouses

[Antonio y Olga 1]

When the N-400 form asks for "Immigration Status of Prior Spouse" under section "G" is that their current immigration status or the status at the time of marriage; e.g. a former spouse was on a visitor's visa when I married her; today she is a US Citizen, which one should I include?

thanks for your help with this question

Part 8, section G, right? G applies to the marital history of your current spouse. If you are the applicant, part F applies to you. But it doesn't make any difference in this respect, because the questions asked are identical in both parts F and G.

Here is your answer:

"If you were married before, give information about your former spouse or spouses.

In question F.2 or G.2, check the box showing the immigration status your former spouse had

during your marriage."

I assume this means your prior spouses immigration status at the date of your divorce. They don't ask for your former spouses alien number, if any.

I recall scratching my head on part 8, F in particular for my wife, so I called my immigration attorney. She was the applicant and was previously married and divorced in Colombia, what immigration status. Said to check other, then type, None, Colombian. No problem with that.

For me was simple in part G, ex was always a US citizen from birth through our divorce. Suppose if I was married to immigrants several times, we would be in trouble which is the whole purpose of these questions. If you ex was here on a visa at the time of your divorce, better check other, none, but not sure if you should type visa or her home country. But feel either would be more honest than her present after your divorce status.
