I don't believe that perjury on the application for a marriage license, intentional or otherwise, is going to invalidate your marriage, no.

No if he was properly divorced before he married you .. you are legally married.

It is if he was still married at the time of your marriage to him. However, you need to have a court declare it void so you don't get stuck with his bills.

If your husband was married to another woman on the day of your marriage, your "marriage" was not valid. An assortment of issues can arise even under these circumstances regarding property and support.

If he is till married, your marriage is null and void. If he finalized the divorce after you were married and you knew he was married, I think you may be married.

If your husband was already married to another person when he married you, than most likely your marriage to him is invalid.
