You need to contact a divorce lawyer/immigration lawyer to assist you. The first marriage is over and is irrelevant except for the fact that it made your second marriage void at the time it was entered into. However your later divorce may have resolved that proplem and made your second marriage valid. I don't know without reviewing all the documents. Also, I am not sure what you mean when you say the second marriage was not registered. This is not the kind of question which can be answered in this forum.
