Satellite,

I missed that thread at the time, and the responses then are an interesting contrast to those now.

But apparently Captain Ewok still feels the same way now as he did then.

Yodrak

I actually suggested this idea over a year ago and it never went into effect. The whole idea actually got shot down. Perhaps Yodrak will have some more clout with the administration.

That is unfortunate if a forum could not be started for such a thing. Obviously it does happen and it is reality. I guess it may be a bit like having divorce pamphlets at the chapel as you walk in to marry but really this is an issue that many come here looking for answers. Marriage is a huge step, even more so when it involves leaving your home country to do so. Not a step to be taken lightly, so for those who think it could never happen to them a little taste of the possibility is not such a bad thing. As with everything else in life I always think it is a good idea to keep in the back of you mind what Plan B would be if Plan A did not work out as you had hoped. :yes:

As with everything else in life I always think it is a good idea to keep in the back of you mind what Plan B would be if Plan A did not work out as you had hoped. :yes:

On the other hand, it's concievable that my immigrant ex-wife came to America with Plan B in her back pocket in case Plan A did not work out as she had hoped... so it's really a two way street, one side from the immigrant's point of view, and another from the petitioner's or USC's point of view...

So if you think about it, such a forum could conceivably help an immigrant who's arriving with their Plan B already firmly in pocket... someone's who's intentions are not totally sincere...

There's two sides to every story... or actually really three... "his side", "her side" and the truth, likely somewhere in the middle...

But I do encourage the American petitioners to understand the divorce laws in your state PRIOR to taking such a step...

PurrSuede,

Any of the forums could help an immigrant whose intentions are not sincere.

Agree with your often quoted statement about there being 3 points of view.

Yodrak, why do you say such stuff about immigrants? :( Thus, I do not agree that such subject can be opened here. For a simple reason: disturbed people are everywhere, no matter their backgrounds, and it has nothing to do only with immigrants. Second, if somebody decides to get married, it should be very honest to go get counselling if the past is still out of the closet in the present time and gets to divorce or to whatever sad conclusion. This is also maybe one of the reasons IMBRA exists, because people do not take care of themselves in the appropriate manner. This is very well known now. And, many sites exist related to divorce, etc elsewhere, help groups, etc. This is not the place overall. If tensions exist, they exist because the process of the visa is complex, but it's another thing when the tension becomes tragic because people did not do what they had to do for their past. So in that perspective I totally agree with Mr Ewok.

Based on the following recent poll there is overwhelming support. Although very few members voted possibly because few visit the polls forum.

Ambivalence would be another possible reason not to vote.

Satellite,

The poll shows about 4 to 1 in favor, but I note from the posts that some people who voted 'No' expressed a change of opinion once it was made clear that the intent is not to have a forum about divorce, the intent is to have a forum on immigration issues when divorce is a factor.

Regretably, there continue to be a few people who are looking for information about divorce when this web site is about immigration. But, we will have to contend with the posts from such people whether or not the new forum is created.
