ICE investigation

[His Glory 25]

Does anyone have any experience on what to expect when you report your spouse for marriage fraud? what kind of proof do they need? what can I expect as the reporting spouse?

I would expect that to prove the allegation the ICE would need evidence that would be persuasive to a judge.

Does anyone have any experience on what to expect when you report your spouse for marriage fraud? what kind of proof do they need? what can I expect as the reporting spouse?

Proof comes from actual document-able facts, not from imagination or expectations.

It must be presented in the context of the relationship in a way that shows that

a law or immigration regulation was violated in a willful way.

Was documentation falsified? Someone bribed or something bought in an unlawful way to support an application or petition?

For example, lying about a previous relationship may hurt your feelings but there was no law broken.

You might begin by looking at various laws & regulations.

A written statement.

Verbal statements witnessed by non interested parties who are prepared to testify.

[Brother Hesekiel 2,235]

A written confession is best. However, it can't be gained by torture as that would make it inadmissible. Since water-bording is only one of the "enhanced interrogation techniques" where the final judgement is out, you'll have to be very creative and need to walk a thin line.

Next best thing is printed evidence, such as mail correspondence where the accused describes his or or plan of fraud. But even here you must make sure that you had a legal right to open and/or read the mail, or you will get in trouble.

Basically, fraud is very difficult to prove, and if the allegations come from a disgruntled spouse, it's even more difficult.
