"Wife" lied on visa application

[Merrillizer 0]

More deception from my "wife" has been brought to our attention. She entered the U.S. on a J-1 Visa on June 25th, 2008. She had claimed to be a Student, but had already graduated University in Iasi, Romania. I met her on July 17th, 2008. Throughout our relationship and eventual marriage here, she stated to me on multiple occasions that she was "so lucky" to have gotten the J-1 because she was not a student. My ignorance of Visa's and how they worked (I have only traveled to Canada, didnt need a passport etc, never been to Europe etc.) made me think nothing of it. She said on numerous occasions that she was technically not supposed to be here or get the J-1.

What are the penalties for such fraud as making false claims on the visa application? She also stated on all AOS forms we filed (which I ultimately withdrew) that she was a Student, and entered the U.S. as a Student, which was deceptive.

I feel bad for what happened to you, but ONLY GOD will give you the peace and the answer you are looking for. FORGIVENESS

Please try to let it go, it will be better for your health and will help you heal better, back when she was with you and both of you being happy, I doubt you felt her visa or the fact you got to share some times together, if it wasn't an issued then, so i shouldn't be one now, give the girl a break, You might feel a HIGH from keeping talking bad about your EX WIFE, she's your EX now as IN THE PAST.

Everybody knows what she did to you WAS WRONG, but only God can judge her for her actions and I do beleive in Karma what goes around, comes around, one day she will pay for it. You have done what you can on your side by reporting her, so she may not be able to do it to another person, with that said, try to move on with your life and FORGET ABOUT HER.

But instead of sympathy people will look at you at an angry, vindictive person, Is that the image you want to portray of yourself, IF you have kids is that the attitude you would like to teach them.

Please, Please and Please again get a Counselor if you are unable to deal with this pain by yourself, talk to a dear friend, someone who really cares about you, who's not going to say yes yes yes, just so you can feel nice.

I hope in due time you will see things in perspective and learned from it, and like they say what doesn't kill you, only make you stronger. Please take care of yourself

God Bless!!

Ummm, let's see...maybe because I am involved in an annulment process, and my attorney is requesting info from me and documents from my "wife"? That could be why.....

If you don't have anything pertinent to add or answers to the original question, why bother posting in the thread? Oh thats right, because you just cant resist posting your off-topic banter and useless opinions.

Thank you Otto und Karin for the PERTINENT info. Good post.

Perhaps he doesn't want to be held to the affidavit of support (hanging over you like a sword)?

If he can prove fraud (from the beginning), that would invalidate the affidavit. (so says a lawyer)

First, there's no way she got a J-1 Visa without a sponsor to provide a DS-2019. Second, you don't have to be a student to get one, since it covers academic exchange and post-graduate work, among other things. If she had just finished University, there is no fraud in saying that she was a student, lots of people go to school more than once, and lots of people call themselves "students" in that situation. She may not have thought she should get a J-1, but apparently her American sponsor and the embassy in Bucharesti thought she should.

Drop it.

I couldn't agree more!

Merrillizer, you let this thing get out of hand! Please, for your own health's sake - move on with your life and let go of her!

Ok......

so what is the point in continually posting your issues with her here on the internet. I think the people on here already know that you think she's a liar.

They also know that the sun is still going to rise tomorrow too......

Just my pertinent bit of info.

Just a question: How come are you so sure that SHE did something wrong?

I believe that WE (the crowd) will never know for sure...

Why couldn't this be as simple as two people who should have never been married to each other?

[NArocks 13]

As stated before and before that. There are 2 sides to every story. You can also read up on how often the I-864 is placed in effect. Seriously you are going to make your self sick. Get over it already...........
