Wanting to find out if I am still married or am I divorce from my husband?

I lived in Ks when I left him and he moved to another state, don’t know where.
Its been 27 years and I don’t know if I got the divorce and he said he didn’t
file for divorce. He got in touch with me this year and said I filed but I don’t
remember. How can I be sure?

At the court where you may have filed your petition for dissolution of marriage, look in the computer for your name under petitioner or your husband's name under respondent to obtain the case number. Then, give the case number to the court clerk and ask to see the file.  You can't remove the file from the court, but can have any or all pages you want photocopied by the court clerk.
