    It sounds like you got your PR based on employment, correct? If so, your divorce after PR is irrelevant. Yes, you need to file an address change, foirm AR-11. If you were married in 2008 and not yet divorced, you mark you are married, but check with your tax advisor as to MFJ or MFS. Good luck!
