    yeah… I’m an immigrant myself and nearly all the adults in my family who are here are… and it’s definitely a thing questioned even within immigrant communities where someone with citizenship/PR starts a new relationship with someone who’s just moved in from the motherland.

  Yes it might be depending on context. But. I literally know of at least 2 marriages in the ethnic community I’m from that are like this. Person marries a citizen to stay. It not an easy process though, but for some couples they may find the arrangement mutually beneficial so it happens.
