I don't think you're going to get much support here for such ideas. True that 'mail order bride' cases may take a bit longer to adjudicate (more checks to do, etc), but the USCs still have the right to petition for the bride. If it is a sham relationship, then you've got to trust that the system will catch it.

I know of many couples here on VJ - both US/Filipina and US/Russia - that met both the traditional way, and the way you describe. Who are we to say who is and isn't in love?

Personally, I'm thankful that our system scrutinizes ALL of us. The immigration system in the UK, if you can call it that, is eventually going to strangle that country's infrastructure.

:yes:

How come there are so many responses in the UK forum from people who are not from the UK?

I guess if you insult people sometimes they get a little pissed-off?

Particularly from a newbie petitioner who filed all of 5 DAYS AGO!!!

YMMV

Ok sorry all, I was just really irked last night after reading one of those posts that was questionable. I most definitly think everyone should have the chance for love regardless of where your from! Doesnt matter where you find it everyone should be happy. I just irked about people doing it for a visa and lost my cool, sorry all!!! I really need to think before I write stuff...

Are you sure your fiance isn't just doing it for a VISA? :lol:

clogging the visa process up and those of us who ACTUALLY love the person we are with

How cute! What do you think love has to do with the immigration process? It's not a requirement of any of the visas we discuss here.

Irrelevant! It doesn't matter when he/she filed, she still has to go through the same as the rest of us

hmmm what would be the word ....oldies, seasoned petitioners oh I dunno fill it in as you will. She just hasn't racked up her bonus hearts like you have. ;)

Ok, I didn't know where to put this, but I'm guessing you all might not yell at me ;) I am really irked that all these men who want wives and go on dating sites and find women from Russia and Phillipines etc are clogging the visa process up and those of us who ACTUALLY love the person we are with have to wait even longer!!! I looked on one of those stupid sites and here's a paragraph I found on the first page:

The Russian woman's attitude about herself is feminine. She expects to be treated as a lady, she is the weaker gender and knows it. The Russian woman has not been exposed to the world of rampant feminism that asserts its rights in America.

#######!!! If you believe that then move to Russia, dont bring her here! No offense to those who have met a SO from one of those countries and have a relationship. I just wish there was a seperate process for those who went out looking for a wife so we could get our fiance's here faster. Granted we have it easier than some other countries since our fiance speaks english and the flight is a lot cheaper so I shouldnt complain too much, but :-P Ok, thanks for letting me rant :) Hope we all get our visa's SUPER FAST!

It must be wonderrful to know you are always right and perfect and not have any prejudices or bias or make generalizations.

This country is for all of us not just you. Grow up!

What about "mail order husbands"? I feel left out! :ranting:

As the Lady said; she spoke without thinking....which i suspected that she did. Give her a chance.

My fiancee is from the Phils and I was offended until she said that she spoke out of frustration.

This process has tested us all........live and let live.

Speaking without thinking gives a fair insight into the person's true beliefs and attitudes and I think she's expressed hers very clearly.
