Hi everyone started my visa journey in May. Just got a RFE had met my future wife on a website called Cherry Blossoms. The RFE is about that web site says I am to get a signed written consent from that the international marriage broker obtained from the beneficiary authorizing the release of her personal contact information to me.

Am i to contact the web site or have Grace write something a little confused. The web site keeps that information. After time we exchanged that information our self. Any way thanks for the help in advance.

Did you answer 'Yes' about meeting through an IMB? I do not believe Cherry Blossoms is an IMB, so hopefully you answered 'No'. You need to respond by telling them that the site is not considered an IMB and provide a copy of their TOS stating so, and also send the company an email and ask if they are considered an IMB, and send a copy of their reply to you stating they are not.

There are a few posts in the IMBRA forum(where I am moving your post) that talk about this very topic and what you can send.

don't forget to add a cover letter stating that you filled out the form wrong on that one question, also state you are including the proof that the site is not an IMB.

I know it might be obvious, but answer specifically in the cover letter, the thing they RFE'd you about. IMO, the 'proof' is not enough, you need a cover page.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

Hi. I'm Santino and I'm worried about this imbra. I will file our 129f this coming Friday. I wanted to know if I'm still going to send a message to Cherry blossom since me and my fiance met on that site. But I already answer it no because as I have read all your comments others answer no. I'm just confused and scared of getting RFE. Should I have some copies of our conversation as a proof of relationship or should I not do it? Help me please.
