In this video, Immigration Green Card Attorney Carlos Batara explains why winning permanent residence through remarriage is often a difficult endeavor.
Unlike first marriages, green card seekers confront a double burden. They must prove not only that their current marriage is valid, but also that their former relationship was bona fide.
Poor preparation, simple mistakes, and incomplete answers, lead to government suspicions of marital fraud. Sometimes this concerns arises from the immigrant’s first marriage, other times from the immigrant’s remarriage. However, such fears often arise from the U.S. citizen’s previous or current marriage.
This video dives into the danger of hostile divorces, especially when allegations that can later undermine green card remarriages go unchallenged.
