A: As a Mexican citizen with a valid tourist visa, you may be able to pursue a divorce in the state of South Carolina where you got married, even if you are currently residing in Wisconsin. Divorce laws vary by state, so it's important to understand the specific requirements and procedures in South Carolina. You may want to consult with a family law attorney in South Carolina who can guide you through the divorce process and help you understand your rights and options. They will be able to provide you with the necessary information and guidance to initiate the divorce proceedings and address any specific concerns related to your visa status.
