USCIS asks citizens to report H-1B, EB-5 fraud, ‘getting married for immigration can lead to deportation’

The United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has issued a stern warning against marriage fraud, calling it a serious crime that undermines the credibility of the country’s immigration system. In a post on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), the federal agency emphasised that entering into a marriage solely to obtain immigration benefits is a federal offense and can lead to arrest, substantial fines and deportation.
