No, but they will not recognize him as being legally married to his second and third wives. Only the first wife will be a legal wife. If he continues to live the life of a polygamist, he may be prosecuted for bigamy or adultery, depending on the state he lives in.

When does it actually become polygamy?

Polygamy is the act of having two or more spouses at one time. What legally counts as polygamy varies by state and by country. In some places, it simply means that you cannot be legally married to more than one person at a time. In other places, living a 'marriage-like' relationship (such as cohabiting or having sexual relationships) with two or more people, whether or not you are technically married, can get you legally convicted of polygamy.


Where can I buy citizenship and what are the requirements for obtaining it?

How is polygamy proven or do states or the SSA department have a way of tracking multiple marriages?

You can only be married legally to one person at a time in the United States.How polygamy is proven depends on the laws of the state regarding bigamy and polygamy. But the government does have a way of tracking and stopping multiple marriages. When you apply for a marriage license the state will do a background search to see if you have ever applied for a marriage license before and if previous marriages have been legally annulled or not. If you are still legally married to someone, a marriage license will not be issued to you. This doesn't stop people from living polygamy however, they simply don't get legally married to more than one person. Instead they will have a marriage ceremony that is not legally recognized, such as a religious or spiritual ceremony.In addition, you can only have one "surviving" spouse in your Social Security records. (Although ex-spouses can apply under your benefits if they meet certain requirements.)
