Question about the International Marriage Broker section

 Share

Recommended Posts

Hello,

My fiancée and I met on a website called asiandating.com before moving over to Facebook and Facebook Messenger. As far as I can tell we did not go through an International Marriage Broker firm. But there is a slot in the IMB section for a website to be listed. Now my question is would I need to fill out the entire IMB section, i.e. names, organization, address? I would imagine I fill in the website slot.

Thank you for your time!

You found each other on a website. You did not meet there.

 

Meetings take place in person.

good. Print the terms and conditions of that website in case USCIS or DoS ask.

Only if you used a broker. You wrote you did not.

No. The form  makes it clear you do not.

You did not use a broker. So no.

 

Do not volunteer anything about web sites.

Of course. That’s why you want the website’s T&C’s ready to defend your assertion you did not use a broker.

I did finally meet her in person just recently actually. 

That’s good. That is the meeting you need to document in the form (date and place of meeting), and in the evidence (plane ticket receipts, boarding passes, passport stamps, hotel receipts, photos, etc).

 I think a ‘marriage broker’ is much more arraigned than meeting on the average website. I think most of us started off on a website, then went to private communications then eventually a meetup. Even if it was of the Tinder type, still not a marriage broker.
