Precisely. Not sure if it is a crime or not (probably!), but lying is never a good idea, specially to an immigration agent.

Just telling the truth should suffice. The only issue is if it will cause trouble later on should she try to enter again. I assume it would.

EDIT: There is probably a 'alien will probably overstay' flag somewhere. Not a 'alien will overstay provided she is still married to an out of status alien'.
