Fake marriage cheats green card Canadians to "accompany their wives and soldiers"

China Overseas Chinese Network News: According to the Canadian newspaper World Journal, the newspaper received complaints from readers that his wife cheated marriage and wealth in order to obtain immigration status. He has filed a divorce lawsuit with the court and demanded that his wife's immigration status be revoked. However, lawyers pointed out that it was difficult to prove "fake marriage" afterwards. When divorcing, there are problems of property division and alimony. If you plan to get married across borders, plan ahead to avoid "losing your wife and folding your soldiers", leaving both people and money empty.

Cross-border marriage is becoming more and more common. Many people have found the right person, and live a life of admiring only mandarin ducks and not immortals. But some people are separated because of different cultural backgrounds. Moreover, because transnational marriage involves immigration application, it has also become the purpose of "real immigration" through "fake marriage".

A few days ago, this newspaper received a complaint from a 57-year-old reader from Chinese mainland, saying that she met her 40-year-old wife, also from Hunan, China, through the Internet two years ago, and they got married three months later, and her wife successfully obtained Canadian immigration status.

However, after his wife went to Canada, she only lived with him for three months, and cheated him out of all his savings on the grounds that his family had invested in China. Even his car was stolen by his wife. Seeing that the bedside was exhausted, the wife proposed an agreement for divorce. He can't stand it. He filed a divorce lawsuit with the court, demanding that his wife return the investment money and asking the court to revoke his immigration status.

Qian Lu, an immigration lawyer, said in an interview that immigration law belongs to administrative law, not criminal law or civil law. In this case, it is quite difficult for the victim to ask the Immigration Bureau to revoke his wife's immigration status through legal channels. He must prove to the immigration officer that what he said when he first promised his wife to immigrate was untrue. The marriage between the two sides is not based on love, but on "immigration". However, it is quite difficult for the victim to prove himself and justify himself. A little carelessness may be considered as cheating by immigration officials.

As for the part of cheating money, it is more difficult to prove. As long as the woman's family says it is a bride price or a bride price, if the two sides hold their own words, the court can't find it.

Qian Lu stressed that both parties have filed divorce proceedings, and according to the relevant provisions of the Family Section of the Civil Law, the woman does have the right to claim the division of assets such as the house where both parties live together and the daily account deposits, and claim half of the rights. If the woman has no job, she can also ask the man to provide alimony every month.

Due to the failure to take preventive measures in advance, he believes that there is very little that the male victim can do in this case and can only wait for the court's ruling. He suggested that those who intend to marry or remarry across borders, if they have doubts about each other's intentions, might as well sign a "property division agreement" before marriage, stating that once divorced, the other party must give up the right to claim part of the property division, but the house where both parties live together cannot be listed.
