That might work out for some guys...once a year, marry a Russian girl and each following year get a new one to bring to the US.
Why would you want to pay for a wife? Aren't they enough trouble when they are free?
I have known three people who have taken a Russian for a wife. All three lasted just right at one year, to get permanent status, and then "she" takes off. Two of the three were able to get the "wife" deported back to their fatherland. Be careful!
I knew a guy a few years ago in another unit that had the catalogue and everything. He was dead set in ordering one, thankfully we all talked him out of it.
Are you saying you did this? If so how's it going? Best of luck!
