Green Card owners are immigrants who got

permanent resident status in the US. This

means they can legally live and work in the
country.

Task 1. We’re gonna pretend to go to a Green

Card Interview. We’ll need three characters: A
wife, a husband and an immigrations officer.

YOU ARE THE WIFE YOU ARE THE HUSBAND

You are a Hungarian immigrant to
the US. You have been accused of
marrying a stranger just so you
would qualify for a Green Card
that would grant you permission
to legally stay and work in the US.
You, of course, want to prove to
the Immigrations Office that
your marriage is a real one. You
will be interviewed separately by
an immigration officer. In the interview both you and
your husband have to tell the exact same story,
because if the officers find 3 differences in your
stories, you will be deported back to your native
country. You have 10 minutes to prepare your story
together. You’ll be asked 10 questions:
 When, where and how did you meet?
 How was your first meeting?
 What did you have in common?
 Who made the first move?
 What jobs did the two of you have at the time?
 Who proposed to whom?
 Where did you go on your honeymoon?
 What is the most annoying habit of your spouse?
 Where and how did you celebrate your first
wedding anniversary
 What gift did you get from your husband?

YOU ARE THE IMMIGRATION OFFICER

You are investigating a possible fraudulent marriage case where a man and a woman may have
gotten married just in order to get a Green Card for the woman that would grant her
permission to legally stay and work in the US. The couple insists that they are indeed in love
and plan to have children together. You are going to interview them separately. You want to
prove that they are deceiving the Immigrations Office. If you can find 3 differences in their
story the woman will be sent back to Hungary immediately. You ask the following questions:
