Fradulent husband married for a visa

[taal 28]

Okay you guys, when I filed from here for our visa, I disclosed to my lawyer of my father in laws status, he listed on the documentation, resides in New York, however, is paying taxes, but is currently and has been applying for work permit or residency for 10 years. I included all his taxes in the paper work. I have no intention of deporting him, nor would I ever.

I emailed uscis, but think I emailed the wrong person got an error email today failure notice. Can someone tell me who I can contact the exact address email, or anything to not allow my soon to be x husband to have the opportunity to get away with it easily. Make his journey difficult in the future?

The most difficult obstacle is my family calling me all day every 10mins, its hard to hear I ran away and need to be an adult about it, and am letting them down, and bringing great embarrassment to them. While my x remains in my house in my room. How is that fair? My car was under my parents names, I paid for it and they threatened to take it back. I personally had my friend drive it over and let them have it. Its hard hearing am making my mom more miserable and stressing her out because of this ordeal. And if something happens to her its my fault, its hard.

I have him added under my phone contract. Should I cut his service off now? Or should I wait a little longer to see if he contacts anyone? But when he calls India, its off a Vonage number that I got added to save me a lot of money by paying a monthly fee. So if he calls India only the US number shows up not the exact location he calls....

Please advise, every little bit helps...

I read this post however, it stated without evidence do not waste there time, I will come across as petty.

I read this post however, it stated without evidence do not waste there time, I will come across as petty.

Your evidence is your word. You lose nothing by writing them a statement (as unemotional as possible stating only the facts).

Personally I would terminate his phone (he works, he can pay for his own) and I would also remove the Vonage stuff from his access (so change the password or whatever else you need to do.

Remove him from any bank accounts/joint bills etc.

You paid for the car but it was in your parents name so you couldn't prove that. It sucks but you learnt a lesson, put it in YOUR name or they won't consider it your property.

Good luck and stay strong!

ok - sorry, i've had a chance to sleep a bit..

IMO, the best route for you, for this week, is to file for annulment, and state/write in the filing that the marriage was done for immigration purposes, and now that he's arrived in the usa, and received a green card, defendant clearly indicated that the marriage was for solely his benefit.

IMO, if you :

1. file for annulment and

2. get that wording in the filing document

then it'll be difficult for him to file for a 10 year card...

[which is the slope I want him clearly placed on]

Submit your divorce filling / annulment based on Fraud to the USCIS.

Do a write up on how in 2004 his dad paid a woman from the states to India to bring his son over and he was caught.

Thus this is not his first immigration fraud attempt.

[Darnell 8,478]

Yup Yup - this week, practice writing your letters of attestation.

Initially, they'll be used with the divorce filing

but will get to USCIS and the DoS/IV Unit as well.

As an Indian woman, divorce is embarrassing. But you know what? You are an American citizen. And even in India women are getting divorced when their husbands turn out to be sh*ty. If divorce was such a "taboo" he wouldn't have been suggesting it. There is no reason for you to tie yourself to outdated misogynistic ideals when you don't even belong in India but in America. And in America it's perfectly OK for you to be happy. Your parents don't have your best interest at heart. If they want to sponsor him for a Green card, let them. YOU don't have to. Divorce him now and he wont be able to ROC based on marriage.

I'm Indian born and raised and my mother spoke back to my dad all the time. She didn't take ####### from anyone and she isn't the only one. My cousins and aunts didn't either. A lot of women speak back. No need to show loyalty to made up ideals that's not reality for many people even in India.

I cut him off from my phone service as well Vonage disconnected all those added overages... I took him off my bank account, he does not have access to it any longer. My cousin reached out to me, she was always against arranged marriages, said find someone yourself from here. She's supporting me but behind the scenes. She is and has been happily married for 5 years and wanted me to come live with her. I refused, I am not prepared to be around family at this point, and am scared that I will be bombarded by family. I deserve to be respected and treated as an equal in any relationship, I am not asking a lot.....I'm just focusing on standing up for my rights, and speaking up against all this chaos.

So the letter I write, I still have the email and documents from the embassy about the paid visa attempt my husbands dad tried in 2004, as well as the embassy Indian, having it in there files. I can attach that with me, I have 6 months of phone records of him hardly speaking to me instead me calling him, while he was working. 95% of the calls are to India, or his Dad. I don't think this will help but does I think support our distant relationship. Please tell me otherwise.

You have an amount of local issues, relationships and such that would make any regular person quite busy. How could Feds help you? If there is a quantifiable answer, then you could proceed and weight that against potential risks

You've removed yourself, cut account losses, started the process of regaining an eligible bride status. Bravo! He can't pass his interview? Great. But write letters? Like you said: blame tends to bounce around in life. Don't devote to negatives, dedicate your life to positives

[Darnell 8,478]

I disagree with SingleDad2usc 's posit on not writing letters into the Feds, 100 percent against what he's positing..

[SingleDad2usc 71]

I know, Darnell. I'm easy. If you explain the gain to The bride, I'll be gladly corrected

And I STRONGLY agree with Darnell... 100% !!!

Why would she not take the opportunity to help possibly prevent him from his illegal immigration and fraud attempts? After the divorce goes through and he loses legal status.... following in dad's footsteps, what happens when he gets the bright idea to marry another American woman here he does not love and wants to take advantage of just to hopefully help him change his status to legal? Do we know this would happen? No... Is it possible - yes. Therefore if the OP writes her letters and gives the USCIS/ICE the facts then THEY can determine if he should be allowed to stay or not. I see no need to cover his tracks for him, just because SingleDad2usc thinks this guy needs protected.

Taal... I was so happy to see how strong you are and the steps you are taking... and not waiting around to be used any longer. You are a remarkable woman. I wish you the best for long term happiness when it is all said and done.

[SingleDad2usc 71]

That wasn't explanation of good coming to OP, for the price of blaming the other guy in her own arranged marriage. But maybe someone can decipher that good...Then I'll be happily corrected
