Telling lies in order to get a visa to enter the US
Question: 11125
I will be taking a second wife ishaallah. I applied for a fiancee’ visa so we could marry in the US. That was denied.as well as an immigrant visa. Is it haraam to use another person’s id for her to enter the country?
Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.
I think that it is not permissible to
deceive or tell lies in such cases when the first request has been refused.
Submit a second application and state your reasons. Using someone else’s
passport or ID, or someone else’s visa – we think that this involves
some measure of lying or deception. So he should apply again until he
gets what he has requested.
