SHAMMARRIAGE
Sham marriage
A sham marriage or fake marriage is a marriage of convenience entered into with the intent of deceiving public officials or society about its purpose. Arranging or entering into such a marriage to deceive public officials is itself a separate violation of the law of some countries. While referred to as a "sham" or "fake" because of its motivation, the union itself is still legally valid if it conformed to the formal legal requirements for marriage in that country. After a period, a couple often divorces if the marriage is no longer useful.The above text is a snippet from Wikipedia: Sham marriage
