re: CR1-visa entered the country without my knowledge

[souladventurer 2]

well then what is the 751 for?

[NikLR 13,231]

She will still have to remove conditions but just needs to prove she entered the marriage in good faith. It doesn't sound like that will really be possible with zero evidence after entry and divorce almost immediately upon entry.

yes good faith means that she is entering the country to be with her husband. saying that she wants to stay away from me doesn't make any sense. i don't get her mentality one bit. actually i recently told her that i have a job lined up for us but we will have to move to another country and now she saying she doesn't want to go. so i don't know how any authority can say this is a marriage in good faith???

[Transborderwife 4,666]

It ha to be proved that she enters the marriage with good faith, not the country. You could give ice all of the proof in the world though, she's just not a priority for removal.

I'm very confused why you're discussing moving to a different country with her. If anything, you're enabling proof of a bonifide marriage continuing to communicate that way.

She has to prove that she entered the marriage in good faith. Not the country. Like Transborderwife said, she is not a priority for ICE.

[souladventurer 2]

what does good faith mean? if there is a divorce how does that affect good faith?

[Boiler 45,912]

Divorce happens, she can file to remove conditions earlier when it does.

ICE? Do not understand what she has done to interest them.

[Transborderwife 4,666]

It doesn't. It means that she just has to prove that she entered the marriage with good intentions. Not strictly for immigration benefits. By getting the cr1, part of that job is already done. The two of you showed that you had a bonifide marriage.

Meh I mentioned it in case he feels he needs to report fraud.

[Boiler 45,912]

What fraud?

[souladventurer 2]

you mean waiting this long for a CR1 visa and then she entering proves a bonafide marriage. wow...i would say a bonafide marriage is someone who enters the country with the intention of being with her spouse. but i guess it is just legalities.

[Boiler 45,912]

What evidence do you have of fraud?

[souladventurer 2]

the fraud is that my wife is in the country and not with me...so i guess a visa that is for marriage isn't considered a marriage visa at all..its just a visa to the authorities. i would think that the authorities would back the sponsor or petitioner in the case of a situation where the couple isn't living together and is having problems with the fact that marriage is not bonafide to the sponsor.

How is it not a marriage visa? You and your wife proved to the embassy that you are a bona fide couple and they granted you the privilege to bring your wife to the US. They assumed you knew your wife well enough before you decided you wanted to spend the rest of your life together with her. It is not their fault that this happened. You proved bona fide relationship.

How long did you know her before you guys got married? How much time did you spend actually being with each other?

souladventurer,

There is little you can do. What everyone is trying to explain to you is that you have little evidence to report to immigration that will have any impact on her status. She has a GC. She will most likely get ROC by way of a divorce waiver.

There are cases on here where members have reported fraud to immigration with substantial evidence and still nothing was done.

All you have is a wife that entered country without your knowing and is living in another city. And even with that evidence whose to say that she won't have a change of heart and come to you next week.
