Let's Be Honest About Green Cards
We believe in transparency. Here's the real talk about marriage-based immigration.
✅The Reality
Yes, marriage to a US citizen can lead to a green card. This is completely legal and a legitimate path to permanent residency that millions have used.
The process typically takes 12-24 months and costs around $1,200-$1,760 in government fees.
You'll need to prove your marriage is genuine through joint finances, photos, travel records, and interviews with immigration officers.
After 3 years of marriage to a US citizen (or 5 years as a permanent resident), you can apply for citizenship.
⚠️The Requirements
The marriage must be genuine. Immigration officers are trained to detect fake marriages and the penalties are severe.
You'll live together, share finances, and build a real life as a married couple. This isn't a business transaction.
Background checks, medical exams, and multiple interviews are part of the process. They will scrutinize your relationship thoroughly.
Marriage fraud can result in: Deportation, permanent ban from the US, and up to 5 years in federal prison.
💡 Our Approach
True Match connects people who are genuinely looking for love AND open about immigration goals. We believe honesty from the start leads to stronger relationships. Many of our members are upfront that they're seeking both love and a path to American residency - and that's perfectly okay when the feelings are real.
Why Traditional Values Matter
