QUESTION
Do you think I can get a green card with my new marriage?
Asked on Sep 10th, 2015 on Immigration - Georgia
More details to this question:
I had a fraudulent marriage. I admit that I was guilty. I withdrew my green card application and divorced. I did not get a green card. I was never charged. I was not deported. ICE and USCIS just sent me a letter stating I married for immigration purpose s. They might sent me to judge. It is 3 years now. I have a real marriage now.

You have a complex case in deed. Marriage fraud is a legal term and should not be taken lightly. Just because USCIS alleged a marriage for immigration purposes doesn't mean that you are absolutely ineligible for future benefits. You should definitely consult with an experienced immigration attorney before committing a mistake with drastic consequences to your status and marriage.

Immigration fraud, such as through marrying for the purpose of seeking immigration benefits (even if immigration benefits never were obtained), is considered a very serious offense and can have very harsh consequences including a permanent bar to immigration application eligibility. There really is no substitute for engaging an immigration attorney who, after learning all of the relevant facts, could advise you about potential eligibility through a new, valid, marriage and perhaps the filing of an application for a waiver of the consequences associated with the finding of past fraudulent conduct.
