Is it difficult to apply for marriage immigration?

When it comes to immigration, many people think of America. As an immigrant country, the United States has many immigration policies, among which marriage immigration is the priority. What does marriage immigration need? Let's see how difficult it is to apply for marriage immigration in the United States.

First, the conditions of marriage and immigration in the United States

Marriage immigrants, the United States, obtain permanent residency by marrying American citizens or green card owners. At present, marriage immigration is the highest priority among all immigrant visas, and it is also the fastest, simplest and most economical immigration method in the United States.

Marriage immigrants in the United States mainly focus on two situations, one is to marry a local American citizen, and the other is to marry a permanent resident of the United States. There are still some differences between the two. The former is not limited by quota, and there is no need to queue up, so the pass rate is extremely high, while the latter needs to wait outside the United States for five years, which is a long time.

In addition, no matter what kind of marriage immigration you choose, you must meet three conditions: first, there must be legal recognition when the marriage relationship is established; Second, the marriage relationship is still valid when the immigration application is completed; Third, it is definitely not to get married in order to realize American immigration.

Second, the characteristics of marriage immigrants.

If we want to sum up the characteristics of American marriage immigrants in one sentence, it is "seemingly simple, but in fact harsh." On the surface, this form of immigration does not need language barriers, does not need too much money, and does not even limit quotas. The threshold is already low. But in fact, in recent years, more and more people have tried to immigrate to the United States by means of "fake marriage", and the US government's review of this project has become more and more strict.

1. American immigrants need to be investigated for marriage.

Judging whether the marriage between American citizens and foreign immigrants is legal is not just about whether they have a wedding, but as simple as not stamping the marriage certificate. After marriage, they have to accept the marriage management of the Immigration Bureau. In order to prove that they are real husband and wife, they must live together. Immigration will also visit the address given by the applicant from time to time to see if they live together. If couples don't live together after marriage, their marriage is likely to be judged as false and suspected of marriage fraud.

2. Marriage immigrants need multiple audits.

In order to prevent fake marriage and real immigration, the US Immigration Bureau changed the green card of married immigrants into a conditional temporary green card for the first two years, and it was not adjusted to a permanent green card until two years after marriage. After submitting the documents to prove the authenticity of the marriage and passing the interview with the immigration officer, you can get two years of conditional residence first. There is no difference in functions and rights between conditional green cards and permanent green cards, but they are valid for two years. If the relationship between husband and wife breaks down within two years, the right of abode of foreign immigrants will be automatically revoked.

Three. Matters needing attention of American marriage immigrants

After understanding the conditions and characteristics of marriage immigrants in the United States, I have to remind everyone of some precautions.

1. When American citizens apply for spouse immigration, their children cannot follow them and must apply separately.

2. American citizens and foreign spouses cannot get married for the purpose of immigration. Once found, the application will be rejected. If found after obtaining a green card, the foreign spouse will be deported and banned from entering the United States forever.

3. If an American citizen obtained his/her original green card status through his/her previous marriage, and if he/she wants to apply for immigration for his/her current spouse less than five years ago, he/she needs to prove that his/her previous marriage was not for immigration, or that the marriage ended because of the death of his/her former spouse.

In order to prevent fake marriage and real immigration, the US Immigration Bureau changed the green card of married immigrants into a conditional temporary green card for the first two years, and it was not adjusted to a permanent green card until two years after marriage. After submitting the documents to prove the authenticity of the marriage and passing the interview with the immigration officer, you can get two years of conditional residence first. There is no difference in functions and rights between conditional green cards and permanent green cards, but they are valid for two years. If the relationship between husband and wife breaks down within two years, the right of abode of foreign immigrants will be automatically revoked.
