Before starting the green card process its important for the alien to first legalize status in US.The successful marriage could be an added advantage for this.Alien may file Form I-601 for this.Ample proofs and support documents are required for Form I-601 filing.

In the United States some of the inadmissible non-immigrant applicants and aliens who are not eligible to be admitted as an immigrant or adjust status in US must file Form I-601 in order to seek a waiver of certain grounds of inadmissibility. They must submit all 11 pages of the INS forms. The Filing Fee is $585.So once the alien becomes a legal resident of US the green card process could be done.

No. A felony conviction disqualifies you from getting a resident alien card (aka green card); even a misdemeanor can, depending on the nature of the offense. Either case can lead to deportation, so tread carefully.

Can you divorce your American husband if you get married in Philippines?

No, the first step of going to US for marriage will be difficult like applying for a Fiance VISA the National Statistic Office will not issue the certificate of singleness which is a requirement in the US embassy. And in an instance that one goes to US without processing the Fiance VISA (assuming one has an existing approved US VISA), the marriage license will be filed in the Phil. embassy which can trace the existing marriage in PH. But anyway I would suggest to settle your marriage in PH first.
