Re: Since this happens a lot...
Ok, so the guy IS already here so you have no surefire way of knowing he is marrying her for the visa chakkar?
Anyhow when my husband and i got married, he was on work visa (H1, the kind you get after the student visa). He has had his green card for two years now and Alhamdulillah i am very happy with him. We also have a little daughter now.
BIL was also on H1 when he married my sister and Alhamdulillah they are happy as ever.
Initially, i was also against marrying anyone who didnt have the "status" since i wouldnt know why they were marrying me. But I am glad i didnt let go of hub's rishta because of this notion, since he is the best i could ask for, Alhamdulillah.
