they have pictures that they met.. a couple of pictures and chats but no wedding pictures.

Maybe your friend and the USC spouse should join the forum.

It appears you are not able to answer simple questions about the relationship:

How often they have met/ When the husband last saw her/What the plan to do if the visa is refused.... is he willing to move to her country?

But, they can both get great advice on how to show the relationship is genuine. 

It will probably take more time and more money. 

I'm thinking more time spent together IN PERSON is what they need.

I believe the same poster is asking about the same case using a different account. The info in the thread below clarifies what happened.

Yes, I asked about that earlier and according to OP, it is 'kind of' like that.

The solution for this is to pay a bit ( maybe a lot ) more and get annulment for this marriage. Remarry and file again. 
After annulment, 
US Citizen can fly there and they can do a Utah online marriage while they are together. 
At new filing explain the first marriage was annulled as an invalid proxy marriage , this allows them to come clean , so to speak and have a chance to get the visa.

Costs about 5K and takes a few years to get out of a marriage in the Philippines. It's a nightmare process from my understanding. My friend got roped into it years ago, and it cost him some serious money and bribes to get out of that.

Hopefully OP realizes he just saved an additional  $5 K on the US side …approx cost to shake hands w immigration attorney and find a good one that will not argue uselessly that “ paper certificate is legit” .

Hello my cousin did something bad. they were married by his husband but the problem their marriage contract is legit and registered but they just pay someone in the registration to enter their paper to be legit without their presence and or any ceremony. do the Us embassy sue them? They don't know if they will continue it or hire a lawyer

Ask your friend to make an account here. Why is he not the one posting? 
Does he not care enough to post here?

 my cousin did something bad. 

 

That says it all

paying someone to register a fake marriage is bad enough

but trying to use it for US immigration is misrepresentation of the facts

Read the part under Fraud as all all the facts for fraud your cousin did 

 

Additionally, misrepresentation of a material fact may lead to other adverse immigration consequences. For example, if the beneficiary commits marriage fraud, it may have adverse immigration consequences for both the petitioner and the beneficiary.

That's 5k if you are lucky!

Yes, but they have already misrepresented what seems to be a material fact.  Could be a lifetime ban.  Very possible the petitioner in this case is either in on the fraud, or not part of the case at all.  Bad.  Very back

Your probably right, this was 15 years ago, so figure 8 to 10k now.

Sometimes it's not all unicorns and roses, and lies cannot be overcome.  I suspect this is why there are warnings on petitions (and all federal forms) requiring signatures about attesting that the info submitted is true.

I personal message you . I don't want to comment here because it is very sensitive.

So you are the real beneficiary right? Tell the truth so we can really understand the situation.

 

If you need help you need to bring the truth to the table.

[PaulaCJohnny 712]

If you bring the truth we can try to help. Looks like you are the beneficiary. Am I wrong?

 

Why don’t you tell us the real story and we all can start over.

 

All this about the scared, wanting to sue USCIS, et  makes no sense if the relationship is real.

 

They probably looked at the date of marriage and date of last visit of the USC and baaamm, they got you lying.

 

This is not just that you throw away and they will forget. This is lying and swearing in from of a consular officer. 
 

 If they are in a real relationship they will find together any other place to live and continue their love story, right?

 

Do you really want help? Be honest for God’s  sake!
