Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed primarily due to a finding of marriage fraud under section 204(c) of the Act. The AAO found evidence that the petitioner had previously entered into a marriage for the purpose of evading immigration laws, based on a sworn statement from his former spouse. This statutory bar prohibits the approval of the current petition and any future petitions filed on the petitioner's behalf.
