Divorce law is governed by each individual state in the US. If a person meets the minimum residency requirement of their state (usually six months or so) they can go to court and request a divorce. Residency just means living in the state. It is not the same as citizenhip. A valid US divorce is valid in all parts of the US. Mexican law and treaties determine whether a US divorce decree is valid in Mexico. A certified transcript of the US divorce may have to be presented in Mexico to make it valid in Mexico. See: Illegal Alien Divorce for a more complete answer.

∙ 9y agoYes, on paper the two have nothing to do with each other. The local courts have no mandate to turn in an illegal immigrant. However, some places may require you to legally be a resident of their jurisdiction in which case you may not be able to prove that, however there is a difference between being a legal resident of the US and a legal resident of a county or city. The best advice is to contact a lawyer in your area.

UMMM, no! First off, you can not be arrested simply for being illegal. And who do you mean by "they"? I dont think this answer is cute at all. The best answer...speak to several lawyers in your area. If there is a lawyer that is of your ethnicity, ask them and see if the answer differs from one of another ethnicity. Ive read online everywhere that you can be granted the divorce.
