Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

My son was born in Colombia (now is 16 years old) .

I moved to USA and married for first time and she gave affidavit to my son to come to USA.

I get divorce and then the mother of my son came from Colombia and I married her about 3 years ago, this married really never work. I want a divorce.

My son was not born during this marriage and we agree that he will continue to live with me.

That can be ordered in the divorce decree. You should speak with an immigration attorney regarding his status.
