Karma will come and bite her in the butt. Maybe not today but down the road...honesty is everything!! People who hide things nor disclose normally do more harm in the long run!! 

I think it already is because when she found out she will have more paperwork and an interview for green card, she flipped out.

No police certificate or prison record available from UAE

She never reported to anyone at any time that she had ever been outside the Philippines except for a trip to Singapore.  She even got a new pass port so it would be clean.  The NBI in Philippines only investigated the areas she said she had been.  I don't know what sort of background is done when you apply for the green card but I do know my wife had pictures taken, fingerprints collected and signature collected.  Then a couple months later we went to Pittsburgh for an interview and she got her green card a week or so later.  This girl thought getting married was the end of the process and didn't know anything about the I-485!

How did she enter the US, as a visitor or a K1?

She entered on a K1 and in fact was just married today.

3 years or 3 months?

 

 

Sorry, she spent 3 months in jail but was in Dubai for a total of 12 years before being jailed then subsequently deported.

Is it 3 years or 3 months? You’re mentioning both.

Sorry, it was 3 months in jail, 12 years in Dubai, neither of which was disclosed.

My wife's friend is from the Philippines.  She spent 12 years living and working in Dubai.  She committed some sort of crime involving money and spent 3 years in jail.  After being released from jail, she was deported from Dubai and received a ban from re-entering the country.  When her petitioner applied for the K1, she obtained a new Filipino passport and lied saying she had only ever been to Singapore and made no mention of Dubai.  She's in the US now and just got married.  She's now worried that all this is going to come back to bite her when she applies for her green card.  What are the penalties for failing to disclose the Dubai incident and would spending 3 months in jail for a financial crime be reason to deport on it's own or in conjunction with the lying on the application?
