  • marriage to green card - travel

    Hello friends
    I am on F1 visa right now and my fiancee is american citizen. We started going out last year in january and are planning to marry soon. Last december we took a trip to india for her to meet my parents and get their approval. We went on separate dates but came back on same flight back to US. It is on our passport and records that we came back on same flight.
    Now my concern is that the trip to india with her ( an american citizen) and me coming back on F1 visa can be considered a visa fraud or not ?
    I have read at some place that since F1 visa is the “ non immigrant “ visa and one should not travel and come back in the country on it even if he/she is “planning” to marry an american citizen as the “non immigrant intent “ is compromised and the visa officials can take it as fraud.
    Later on after marriage when I will show proof that we met in jan and then afterwards we went to india together where all my family is, USCIS will infer that I had some intent of marriage in my mind. Would my coming back on F1 be construed as visa fraud in this scenario? What are the chances ?? Any precedents ?? any suggestions/ comments ??

    you misunderstood.............Intent comes into play when you apply for the visa...that is if at the time of applying for the F-1 or your intent was to remain here and marry then there would ahv ebeen a misrep. there is no Visa fraud going on.

    In fcat your trip will help you later in your OAS process as it will help to prove that you had a relationship with your wife before the marriag eand that it is a bonafide marriage.
