Ex Committed Citizenship Fraud

 Share

Hi,

 

I need help in reporting immigration fraud.  I believe my ex committed citizenship fraud. 

 

Before becoming a U.S. Citizen (and within 5 years of her citizenship test), she worked as a prostitute at a massage parlor.  I hired a private investigator and she offered him sexual favors (at the massage parlor) for money (twice).  Naturally, I assume she didn't report her cash income from her prostitution work and thus committing tax fraud.  I turned the private investigator's report into the police but they "did not have budget" to investigate.  I drove by the massage parlor and saw her car there.  My friend also saw her walk into the massage parlor and turn on the open sign.

 

She also received public benefits (at least government medical insurance).  She was and still is living with her boyfriend and I believe she committed benefits fraud as well by not reporting her boyfriend's income when applying for public benefits.  I believe she is suppose to report "household" income (income from anyone who lives with her and helps provide for living expenses) if she applies for public benefits like food stamp, medical care, etc.  She has a child with her boyfriend and living with him now and I believe she applied for public benefits for the child too without reporting the boyfriend's income.  The boyfriend has a business and I think that would disqualify her from public benefits.  All this before she became a citizen.

 

She also committed domestic violence against me by slapping me on my face.  There is a police report for this incident.  The  officer asked if I wanted her arrested and I answered no.  In hindsight, I should have had her arrested.

 

On the N400 application, there is a question: Have you EVER committed, assisted in committing, or attempted to commit, a crime or offense for which you were NOT arrested?

 

I believe she answered NO to the above question since she denied being a prostitute to me in writing to cover up.  I know she is lying.

 

She committed immigration fraud by lying on the N400 and committed criminal acts within 5 years prior to becoming a citizen.  It's not fair and illegal for her to obtain citizenship.

 

How can I get the immigration office's attention?

 

Thanks for any help.

I also want to add more evidence: She told my mom she invested $40,000 .00into the massage parlor and spent $10,000.00 on her trip out of the United States to visit her family (all this while collecting public benefits and I'm sure hiding her cash income) before becoming a U.S. citizen.

You have been provided with info on where to report, that is the right thing to do. Goodluck on that but before you proceed, I ll like to give little advice. Ensure you have enough evidence to prove your accusations. Forward everything and avoid using the words “assume, believe”. When you believe things but not sure, assume or think, then you may not have a case. She had denied in the past and you couldn’t do nothing. If you continue to pursue her and assume things , then she will continue to deny till you are left with no choice than to quite and that will not look too good after you must have invested a lot. Think about it and proceed wisely.

There is plenty of information on USCIS.org about reporting fraud. It seems like Ylyou got too many "assumptions" but remember noone is guilty until proven otherwise.

Anyway USCIS can investigate or they want hard evidence only?  I do have hard evidence from the investigator and the police report.

You sound more like a spurned ex than someone concerned about citizenship fraud. Excellent info was given to you here on where and how to report your allegations. Boiler literally gave you an email address AND a phone number.

 

It's up to USCIS to pursue this matter and you can't make them do so. All you can do is pass on what you consider "hard evidence" through the proper channel.

When someone obtains citizenship fraudulently, it ought to be revoked.  That's just the law.

No one here disagreed with you. You're just harping on about this and preaching to the choir. Call the numbers and write to the emails you were given.

 

Or, if you can't sleep at night, do a citizen's arrest and bring your ex to the nearest USCIS office. LoL.

I have kept my comments professional and attempted to tell my side of the story in seeking justice.  I find your comments or jokes ("LoL") condescending and offensive.  People's lives are at stake here.

 

Futhermore, others have offered more information than just call and email such as seeing the fraud officer at the local uscis office.  I was looking for more than just an email and phone number.

Alright buddy. I put that "LoL" in there so you don't literally try to apprehend your ex and drag her to the USCIS office.

 

Best wishes in your quest for justice.
