What should we do in our situation to have an official marriage, again?

You should do what your husband's lawyer recommended.  Because your husband was still married to his co-worker when you participated in your second "remarriage" ceremony, that "remarriage" was illegal, invalid, and ineffective.  So clean it up by annuling that invalid "remarriage," and then remarry him again if you still want to be married.

WHAT CAN I DO TO GET MY EX HUSBANDS TOTAL VESTED RETIREMENT AMOUNT

Divorce lawyer at The Law Office of Zoe Meigs, P.C.
Handling a QDRO without an attorney is a risky business, but I do understand your frustration. You may want to hire an attorney to complete the QDRO and the processing of it through the court and then the retirement plan. My initial question is why do you need his most recent statment?  You may use a percentage in the QDRO if that is what it states in your decree.  You do not need to state the current value of the account in most QDROs.  The company will know the value of the account as of the date of divorce, which is when most divorce decrees and QDROs include as the valuation date for dividing the QDRO. Assuming you have a form for the QDRO and have it completed, then you need to file a Motion with the court to enter a post-divorce order to divide the retirment.  You will need to have your ex-husband served with the Motion and proposed QDRO.  Altenatively, if he will cooperate, you may present him with a Waiver of Service for the Motion and have him sign that.   His lawyer will need to sign the QDRO before you present it to the court to sign.

If he keeps it as separate property and not as community property, then you may not have any rights to it.
