as a person who is married to a foreign national i can assure you it is no easy ride (and yes ours is a genuine relationship). if somebody does it for money then they will have to give up at least 2 years of their lives too. you wanna find out how hard it is just ask genuine people like me who have been stuck in limbo for well over 5 years.

It is illegal !
And they'll find out about it.
Marry someone from your own country. There are a lot of lonely people who cry to be with someone.

If US Immigration find out that your marriage is fake, prepare to pay high consequences.

It is a crime.

Marriage fraud, I believe it is called, and you should be able to find the penalty by putting that term and 'immigration' into your browser


Hold my paw please
It is not as simple as just marrying someone and then they can get citizenship, you would have to convince the people who analyze your situation that you really were in love i.e be living together for some time, have lots of pics dating back a year or two, know everything about each other etc, and these people are not easily fooled, this does happen alot but if you are caught and especially if you are doing it for money you will be sent ot jail...whoever it is wanting you to get them into the country should get a temp visa for now or stay where they are! what you are doing is wrong and not fair to all those who get their citizenship on legit and fair reasons

YES! There are definitely laws against marrying someone just to get them into the country and there are penalties to be paid when you're caught - it's pretty easy to sort those who are genuine couples from those just getting hitched to get into a country. If you're not genuinely in love I'd seriously advise against it!

As long as they come in through the southern border anyone is welcome. In fact, soon they may continue north to New York and obtain a legal driver's license and by law they cannot be denied emergency medical care regardless of whether or not they are a fiscal drain or a productive resident of the United States.

You do realize that most marriages end after they get there legal papers>& Then you could have issues>

Can't find the law, but here is something from the USCIS website on a real case, along with the outcome. If anyone asks you to do this, please think very carefully indeed. The poster who said it was a $250,000 fine is, I believe, correct. However, the six months in jail is considerably understated. As you can see from the attached, the sentence can be years, not months.

If you're marrying someone to get them into the country them you are committing fraud and you deserve to get caught and both deported.

Don't do it.

Contrary to opinions of the more racist tabliod press, we do not have lax immigration laws here, far from it. They do check and check thoroughly.

People of different nationalities who genuinely fell in love and got married have had to go through very degrading cross examinations to make sure they were living together and not just pretending for the sake of a passport.

And all the people talking about US immigration- I don't think they care about what goes on outside US borders!

there is no specific law that can prevent this since it is a legal process-marrying someone and sponsoring that person into the country. however the gov't makes the process of oversea marriage more difficult so too lessen the number. it's very expensive for hiring lawyer and proof of marriage (certificate, wedding pictures, oaths,...) then once the person gets into the country, he has to wait for a quite amount of time like 5-10 years before he wants to neutralize, and they must have proof that they've been living together in that amount of time. a legal immigrant has to pay lots of money and do lots of work to stay in the country.

You can find out the specifics by trying it out and hopefully being rejected, since specific ways to avoid a law which is there to protect a country's citizens are generally not publicised widely to say, I dunno, someone who might want to avoid a law which is there to protect the country's citizens.

You can also find the specifics in court while you are being sentenced. Your lawyer may explain them to you while the case is being brought against you.

Or you could take an undergraduate degree in Law, that would probably do it.

If you are marrying to get someone into the country because you love them and want to be together forever in marriage, I expect you don't have to know the specifics of the law as it would be fine and dandy - problem solved.

You need a visa to get them here and it takes a few years and cost about £600, they must speak English, get no benefits for 2 years, then they must sit exams to enable them to stay, cost £80 each time, only allowed 2 attempts and if they fail they get deported, taxed at week 1 rate, no free NHS, must find a job, and get a medical soon after arriving, if the marriage doesn't work out within 2 years they get deported.

i hope you get caught you tosser. dont you think we have enough trouble paying for immigration.

most countries is a big NO NO, but the UK will let anyone in, so just go to france, get on the eurostar and start claiming benefit when you get here.

Go to a government site. Do you actually love the person?
