Hello, I am in love with a girl from a foreign country who just entered on a fiancee visa. The government is forcing us to get married in only 90 days. We are in love, and we are a real couple, however we do not feel ready to be married. Really what I want is to date her for a year or so, then make such a serious decision. But that's impossible because of the damn 90 day requirement. Basically we have no choice but to live in her country (no way) or to commit marriage fraud. Thanks Uncle Sam!!!!
So, my first question is this. Can we go ahead and establish grounds for an annulment now, just in case. Perhpas sign something explaining our current situation and feelings so that if we break up later we can get an annulment easily? I see that green card fraud is grounds for an annulment.
The problem with this is however, that we would be admitting green card fraud if we did present this at an annulment hearing. Then we could face a fine and even prison!
My second question is, if we do get an annulment will the court that granted it contact USCIS and inform them of our "fraud"? I do understand that she will not become a permanent resident and that she will have to leave as a condition of conditional residency. That is not a problem if we are broken up anway.
Hell, why can't we just date like normal people!!!!! I'm so mad at the government for forcing me into a choice between marriage or leaving my country!!!! I just want some legal protection from this marriage I don't want.
