NO your marriage to you husband is not valid.

"Legal separation does not put an end to the marriage. During a legal separation, you have a court order that outlines the rights and responsibilities of each spouse while they are living apart. You remain legally married while choosing to live separate lives"

He will have to marry you again before he can petition you and your baby.

No, your marriage is not legal. You need to get married again and then petition for immigration based on the new marriage

Your marriage is not valid because he was already married at the time he married you. You would have to marry him now since he is now legally divorced. This would have to be done before he can get you and the baby to the USA.

I think you should ask a lawyer. Off the top of my head, I would say your marriage is not valid, and you are with a very bad guy. I think he is playing you, I would be very careful about your future with him.

WhyMe?

If he was still married, your marriage is invalid. I'm sorry. You need to re-marry him before you get petitioned for.

And you believe him? Off-hand, since he was still legally married here when you got married, I would say your marriage is invalid. I am sorry.

Hi!
You should get married again.
That's the best way.

my understanding is that the first marriage will always be considered legal and all others not
