What to do if I just found out about falsified documents?

[JanaWithoutKhodor 3]

My fiance', well, let's now say ex-fiance', was not forthcoming with me in the paperwork he submitted to the US Embassy in Lebanon. Apparently his biological mother is not listed on his birth certificiate, it is his dad's wife, as he was born out of wedlock through his father's affair.

I am not going throught with this marriage and I need to know the proper steps to take in order to notify the embassy he lied, in addition to trying to cancel the visa. I don't want to just let the visa expire, I want it gone, done, forever out of his hands. It is amazing how hard we fought for something and how one little lie can destroy dreams.

Anyhow, enough about woe is me. I just need to know what to do so I don't get my #### in a sling. Will the U.S. Embassy prosecute him in any way, I don't want problems for him but I am not going to allow problems for myself to save him from his own stupidity.

Anyhow, any advice would be greatly appreciated. The Visa expires in March.

Im not an attorney ......... but im thinking if it was his father that had his step mother put on his b.c for what ever reason ....could be he didnt know his birth mothers name? and maybe would not be held accountable for this?

i really dont know but in other countries it might be legal to do what was done.......

as far as canceling his visa if he is in the states i dont think you can you.... just have to notify ins that your not going to marry him and then its up to them to go after him if he dont leave after the 90 days is past

if he is not in the states notify the embassy and the dos that your no longer going to go thru with the marriage

i wish you the best and hope it all turns out for you

I am a little confused. Are you suggesting that he created a false birth certificate?

[JanaWithoutKhodor 3]

He knows who his birth mother is. She was not listed on the birth certificate as his biological mother due to the fact that his biological father was cheating, resulting in the birth of my ex-fiance'. He states they put his step-mother's name on the certificate falsely, to allow for him to travel back and forth to KSA as illigetimate births are not acceptable in Lebanon. He listed his stepmother as his biological mother, she is NOT.

While yes I am hurt, perhaps a bit scorned, but, my issue is protecting myself from legal problems. I work for the government myself and am not willing to jeoporadize my career. He is NOT in the U.S. yet and I doubt he will come, but, I want to protect myself in case he would still try come against my wishes. I want myself protected, that is all I am asking. Do I need to notify the Embassy or not.

I seriously dont know if you can get into trouble over that but as in any muslim country (not saying to pick on muslims because im muslim) having a illegal child can result in the death of the birth mother and makes the child if not claimed by the father a non person pretty much.......im guessing one way or the other this is gonna open up a whole can of worms on his side

His father was murdered by his birth mother's brother when he was 9 years of age. I don't know what it will open up either, I just don't want my #### in trouble.

Email to the US Embassy in Beirut with subject of your case number detailing what you found out should suffice. There should be an email for American Consular Services and for IV services - you want to email both. They can then get in touch with you for any additional info.

You can also call them and ask for American Citizen Services - Embassy Mainline: 04-542600/543600 (Ask for American Citizen Services Section)

For emergencies (duty officer): In the event of a genuine emergency, American citizens may phone the Embassy at any time at 961-4-543600 and ask to speak to the American Citizen Services Section (during business hours) or the duty officer (after hours or weekends).

From your side you need to nortify the USCIS and NVC about your change of intent and let them know as of now the situation has changed and you are not planning to get married.

You have 2 options at this point.

Either leave it the way it is and no negative comment will be put on his file or you let them know about flase birth certificate and they would put that on his file.

Seems there was no visa issues as of yet and most cases like this US gov has no legal authority to prosecute the guy, if the documents were submitted and he showed up at embassy for interview with all the intent to travel to US with fake document, his case would be handed over to the local authority who deals in the fake document.
