What are the laws of commercial marriage in Los Angeles?

What is a business marriage? According to the definition of the Internet, business marriage is a way for some people to obtain the right of abode abroad (green card) by marrying foreigners, and it can also be said that they buy marriage through commercial means (mainly money transactions).

In response to this phenomenon, the immigration authorities in New Zealand and Australia have stepped up their efforts to crack down. In New Zealand, once it is verified that a commercial marriage (fake marriage) is used to come to New Zealand, you may face up to 7 years' imprisonment and a fine of S $100000. At the same time, even if you have got a green card, it will be revoked.

At the same time, the New Zealand Immigration Service has raised the threshold for "marriage guarantee" immigration applications. According to New Zealand Immigration Law: 1) Applicants and guarantors must prove that their marriage has lasted at least 12 months; 2) Language requirements (for example, both parties must use a language that the other party can understand); 3) The guarantor has not provided spouse guarantee for other applicants in the last five years; 4) Each guarantor can only guarantee the overseas spouse to settle in New Zealand twice in his life (each adult only has the right to guarantee marriage twice).

In addition, in order to crack down on fraud such as "commercial marriage", the Immigration Bureau will investigate suspicious couples by surprise home visits and asking about their personal privacy issues (such as sex life) when reviewing such cases. For example, ask a series of privacy questions such as sexual habits and frequency of sexual life of both men and women. If necessary, the Immigration Bureau will "cooperate" with the local police to investigate the applicant.

At the same time, when trying this kind of immigration cases, the most common method used by immigration officials is to extend the waiting period of marriage examination, that is, to test whether the marriage relationship between the two parties is true or false (the authenticity of marriage) by "time". Moreover, this "time test period" has no time constraint, one year, two years, three years and many years. Therefore, this brings great risks to "business marriage", because one possible result is that the visa may be in the foreseeable future, and at the same time, in the long wait, the applicant for business marriage may be: both human and financial!
