Possible bigamy?

[rlogan 2,036]

The New York marriage license application also requires listing of ALL marriages under penalty of perjury:

It is plain as day that previous marriages must have final decrees of dissolution or annulment. It is crystal clear that "marital history" must be fully divulged, not just what you feel like putting down. There will have been not one, not two, but probably multiple state and federal crimes committed by OP in lying on various government applications. Naiive? no way. Criminal? Absolutely.

That's why concealing so much of the true story at the outset is so misleading, and why refusing to answer direct, obvious questions points to deceptive intentions.

Fan-Dancer I handled over 6.000 Vawa cases, believe me what she said to him IT'S NOT ABUSE.She did not lie to him, she said she was married in Jamaica, she said she was not divorced, where is the abuse?.

Marriage fraud, tax fraud, welfare fraud, the list goes on.

OP, your problems are bigger than the scope of what this self-help immigration message board has to offer. You need an attorney.

U visa for what...who harmed him? he needs some kind of annulment

based on finding his present wife is a bigamist, there's also no Vawa

she avoid the AOS process because she did one B4 & have no divorce

decree to produce upon filing one for/with U

But not divulging the previous marriage by either

may constitute a conspiracy by both, When I got

marry it was asked about prior marriages by us both,

now had my wife been married and opt to put no

while we are both their filling out papers to sign

wouldn't that be a plan to deceive with me knowing

then one would ask or wonder Y...Vawa no way

U visa is not that easy to get

There is no abuse here at all.Let's stop with the VAWA song. USCIS said 1000 times when issuing RFE in Vawa cases that " drunkenness, cheating, failing to file AOS ,lying,misleading,being mean, they consider "MARITAL DIFFERENCES, UNPLEASANT SITUATIONS", (their words), BUT NOT ABUSE. I can't see any abuse going on here.

Hey, that sounds like my case without the drunkeness!!! LOL No abuse, just a really lousy cheating lying wife! She deserved a divorce and got one!

If they would even bother to prosecute.

I did a quick google search and there hasn't been a bigamy case prosecuted in the US in some 60 years.

No-one has solid evidence of bigamy. She always said that the marriage in Jamaica was a kinda Mickey Mouse marriage and wasn't real.

I really want to go home, I only agreed to stay for in US two years and then we would go to England. I was thinking that if I went then my wife would eventually come too with the kids but if the bigamy case is true then she has no chance of coming to England.

I had my doubt's on this thread but not any longer.

There could be a law that states if two people got married knowing that they were both faking it and afterwards never lived as man and wife then that marriage is null and void. Therefore if either married in the future, the marriage would be true and legal.

Similarly if a USC married a scammer who married just for a green card then that marriage would then be classed as null and void, the USC would be legally free to marry again.

No.

This may be a scam that back-fired, how can a marriage in

N America be micky mouse marriage? The parties may not

have known the many info had to be provided to USCIS and

ran into a brick wall, they may not prosecute bigamists much

in the US but is very strict & serious about this in Jamaica

where the supreme court is the only court that handles divorce

absolut...being the reason USCIS request divorce Absolut from

that court signed by the JUDGE (original) to process a petition.

Why was the previous marriage ommitted from from the application?

[AnotherLostSoul 167]

If you want to go home, then I think all you need is to get some sort of document stating that your marriage to your "wife" is null/voided. You might need a lawyer for this, but that's what you need, then you can just pack up and go back home. The kids issue is a whole lot of different story...All the best, pal! I'm sorry to hear what a mess you got into. >.<

Seems they never applied for anything related to USCIS.
