Hello all I have just began the K1 process for my fiancé. I have run into trouble because it is asking if the site we met on is an IMB. Although I am pretty sure it isn't I can't seem to find it in the their website Privacy Policy or Terms. I have reached out to some one and still no response. Does anyone have any suggestions?  Thank you so much for you time.

email them and ask for a copy of terms and conditions and not its a dating site not an IMB as defined

 The term “International Marriage Broker” (IMB) refers to a for-profit business or dating website whose primary business model is to introduce U.S. citizens with foreign nationals for the purpose of marriage. 

 

email them at at  hello@muzmatch.com

Are they a paid site that does matchmaking?

Then they are not an IMB

Yes that is what I figured but I need to show USCIS proof (that it is not an IMB) and their website doesn't come out and mention anything in regards to it. I at least need a no back from them but I have had no luck reaching anyone via email.  Thanks your help once again.

All you need to do is explain to the uscis that the site TOS is silent as it relates to paid matchmaking services and therefore does not fit the definition of an IMB.

I met my fiancé on an online game. Not even a dating website.. I used Rapid Visa to do my paperwork and they suggested, since I met him online, to include the policy and terms of the game as proof that it wasn’t an IMB.
