Help !!

How is every one deciding whether to answer yes or no on the IMBRA form question number 1?

Because sometimes it is a fine line.

If I used a websight and paid a fee is that an automatic YES answer if most of the women on it are foreign?even if the webswight had no real contact with me and my fiancee?

I have heard conflicting opinions. Cant anyone help me out here????????????????????????????????

From how you describe, you should answer "yes". They facilitated a meeting for a fee you paid.

From the very limited information posted by the OP how have you come to that assumption? There are exceptions to what the IMBRA constitutes as a marriage broker even if one has paid a fee.

here is a snippet from a e-mail I got from my lawyer. Myself I always say better to be safe then sorry.

right or wrong it is just information. Hope it helps you.

Some items for you to consider:

1. Using a "marriage broker" (a marriage agency) for introduction purposes will not trigger a denial of your visa petition. The purpose of the change in law is to require that marriage brokers disclose certain information to the foreigner concerning crimes before contact information is provided to the U.S. citizen. If the marriage broker fails to comply with law there are penalties against that marriage broker. I find nothing in the law that will trigger a denial of the K visa, or any consequence to the U.S. citizen or the foreigner. If you used a marriage agency to find your fiancée or spouse, then you should identify that agency and give the city and country where the agency is located as well as the internet address.

2. Having a criminal record alone, even a violent criminal past, does not by itself trigger K visa denial. What can potentially trigger a denial is if the U.S. citizen has a criminal past and also the U.S. citizen has already filed at least 2 K or immigrant visa petitions in the past. Basically, the new law targets those U.S. citizens who have a violent criminal history and have applied for 2 or more K visa applications, prior to the instant application. Even then, a U.S. citizen with a criminal record can process multiple K visa applications if the most recent application was more than 2 years old. If you have a criminal record and also have applied for at least 2 K visas in the past, please contact our offices before proceeding further. Otherwise, there should not be a problem moving forward. Your fiancée or spouse will be notified of any crimes you may have committed and her legal rights at the time of her K visa interview.
