Legal Question in Immigration Law in Colorado

marrage/divorce

My sister in law is in the u.s. on a immigration visa and was served divorce papers from her spouse (u.s. citizen/military) should she persue financial assistance from her spouse via divorce or via the ''affidavit of support'' that was submitted along with the original visa paper work?
