Lying during naturalization interview - any consequences?

[Rob L 3,811]

Personally, I'm with you 100%. I'd go for broke. You're not going to win this one by playing nice.

What does winning look like?

What does winning look like?

Getting full physical custody of his child.

What does winning look like?

There are no winners in these sort of disputes.

Getting full physical custody of his child.

At what cost? Especially to the child.

how you know she went to see a family lawyer?

The funny game she's now playing is to say that we never agreed to seperate. I still have evidence of her cheating prior to seperation, not that it matters, but there's no wayt I'm letting her tell me we didn't seperate. She's very nervous about her lie. I think what I will do is report her after the divorce paperwork is filed. Her life is so ###### easy compared to mine. Even now I'm taking care of our son 80% of the time, while she spends nights with guys in hotels. At the very least I want her to begin to be accountable for her lies. Also, after the divorse is completed I will send a complete summary of what she did to her parents. They will be very upset with her and she will be disgraced. I'm on the fence about reporting her cheating during her job interview. It may not get her fired, but the nursing board would probably be interested. All of her family and pinay friends who think I must be such a monster, will see who she really is and think twice about screwing up their own families.

I suggest you drop off your missive with USCIS at the local office dropbox this week, instead .

also - who files first for the divorce petition, controls most in the process.

All i can do is bite my tongue now, but in time i will be informing folks of that facts of "her situation"

Nah, you can write up a written letter of attestation referencing the included evidence, drop it off at the lockbox at the local USCIS office, now, nowish.

There is more you can do, but if you don't do this one thing, first, it's not going to have much outcome.

Really sad ! this is not about inmigration anymore its about revenge. The worst? the one that will pay all this mess its your son.

Reality is that if your wife is looking for money only, never will find happiness and hope you understand this. Seems her goals, in your words its to be with a rich person.

The real happiness its not have a rich, or a beauty in your life, Its about trust and love and seems she is paying for that already and will be miserable all her life long.

If She had choose you only for inmigration proposes: whats the reason she got a child? She can have "papers" anyway.

Did you force her to have one? Was a willing and loved planned child?

Sorry to hear she already move on I know nothing will calm your angriness right now but as I told you: breathe and look for your family support, friends and visa journey anomymous ones. Revenge can be sweet for 2 seconds, but then its like a inmediate gratification with no lasting pleasure.

Sorry again

Earlier I said your wife sounds like she isn't a particularly good person and as an extension probably not a good mother.

However, what you're writing here sounds possibly vindictive and, from a legal perspective, may not be good at all for you. You need to take the high road at all times. First, forget about teaching her any lessons. She won't learn them. If you want what is best for your life and your son's you will work toward that and only that. Document all you can but realize she is certainly capable of the same, and if she has a guy who she's getting cozy with believe that he is giving her advice on how to beat you. Don't give her that ammo; sending things to her parents to disgrace her benefits you and your son in no way whatsoever and if it ends up read in court it will look extremely bad for you. An impartial judge will see it as vindictive and spiteful.

What I'm talking about is called turning the other cheek. In scenario 1 you have full custody, but disgracing her to her parents has gained you nothing; it doesn't help scenario 1 happen. In scenario 2 you have partial access, and disgracing her to her parents has now made you an enemy with a person you share a kid with. Absolutely nothing good will come over that, ever, in any way.

Maybe you should report her for lying in the interview, but you need to take the high road over vindictive and spiteful things, even if in many ways she deserves them. Only do what can benefit you directly.

How will this help?

Agree 200%

Rob L - there's a continuous marriage presence requirement , well, they've not had that, that couple.

Since the beneficiary lied at the interview, the uscitizen spouse can file stuff, before the final determination is issued, and it'll get added to the casefile and evaluated.

there's a chance that the citizenship application, based on 3 years of marriage, will be denied, if the OP moves quickly. So far, not heard of any quick movement. Tempus Fugit for this is devastating, for the OP, if he wants any movement about it.
