Loren, How are you responsible forever if they abandon you? You hope that the person cares for you as much you do them but if it's a sham and they abandon you, how are you responsible for them? How do they determine your liability??? Also, if it is a sham and they just married you to get into the country, isn't that viewed as immigration fraud and they are deported and you possibly fined or imprisoned if you had prior knowledge??? Please clarify.
