Very sorry about this question, I have read the posts pertaining to IMBRA but I can not find one dealing with my question..

My question is , I met my Fiancee on My Forgien Bride , They say they are a Internetional Marriage Broker by law.
I have never commited a crime in my life , I have no police record , should I go to the police station and get some report from them stateing that fact or should I do nothing. I was going to send it in with my I- 129f documents . I just wanted to have the info for them from the beggining.
I am hopeing this will help in not causing any delays in the process.. I hope you understand what I am trying to say here.
Any help will be a blessing.
Thanks you
Larry

Just answer the questions truthfully and to the best of your knowledge, period. Do not think more into the question. No poice report is required with the I-129F submission.

I didn't have a criminal background and didn't file anything extra. Make sure your chick hasn't done something like overstaying her visa or it could complicate things.

There was a lot of talk on IMBRA when it first came out but most people don't have to worry as long as they haven't been convicted of the types of crimes listed on the I-129F.

Domestic violence, Sexual assault, Child abuse, Stalking

Homocide, Murder, Manslaughter, Rape, Sexual exploitation, Incest, Torture, Trafficking, Peonage (I thought that one was about having sex with a midget)
Involuntary servitude, Holding hostage, Slave trade, Kidnapping, Abduction, False imprisonment

The one that seems the most common is the three or more convictions for crimes related to alcohol or drugs not arising from a single act.

I just got this from My Forgein Bride.... Now I am confused ... What do others think??

Thank you for contacting us. We are exempt from the IMBRA law under the provisions of section 4 ( (ii), however we are in the process of implementing an information form so that those US members who are seeking marriage may complete the required information. It is our understanding that it may be beneficial to the Spouse Visa Application if US men complete the information specified in the IMBRA regulations. However, we need to inform you that the law commenced March 6 2006, therefore it will be applicable if you and your fiancee met after 6 March 2006. If you met prior to this date the law will not be appicable therefore you will not be required to complete the form. Please contact us if you require any further assistance and quote your Incident Number: 1505338. Regards, team@MyForeignBride.com

This is a standard response... an IMBRA compliant agency needs to have biographical data on you to share with the ladies... It is or has been a non-issue so far.

Send that in reply with your application.

I've seen no evidence it makes any difference at all whether you used an IMB or not or how you answer the question. If you want to answer yes, just do it. Then answer no to the criminal record question(s) and get on with it. This is a non-issue unless you need to answer yes on the criminal record question.

It sounds like "My Foreign Bride" is a little confused on some aspects. Yes, the law went into effect March 6, 2006 but it doesn't matter if you met your fiancee before that date. The aspects of IMBRA apply to those filing for K-1 visa. If you do not have any criminal convictions as stated under the law, then you only have to state that you met through an International Mortgage Broker that is exempt from U.S. law since they reside outside of America. You should give all the information necessary about your IMB and simply state that you have no criminal convictions and that your fiancee is completely aware of your background. Of course, you should make sure she knows anything that could be of concern to her.

The date is relevant to an IMB in that they don't have to comply with the law in cases where the couple was introduced before the law went into effect. The USC must comply anyway.
