Do I have to write letters?
No, to be successful you do not have to write letters, or engage in correspondence or chat. We believe the most effective technique is to go on a group tour and actually meet the women in person where you have the possibility to meet a wide range of women in a short period of time. Writing letters can be effective if done in moderation.

How can I increase my response rate?
One of the best things you can do is to be committed to going over and share concrete dates and times of your trip with the women in your correspondence. Think about this, women may receive many letters from men, clearly understanding that a large majority of these men may have no intention whatsoever of actually taking the next step and meeting them. Additionally, women like to know that you are interested in them, ask as many questions as you can about her, instead of going on too much about yourself.

What is an introductory letter?
An Intro letter may be sent to you directly by the woman or by the office staff based on your profile matching some of her parameters, however, it is entirely up to the discretion of the office as far as what is considered a possible match, it is possible that some intro letters may not be a good match. Keep in mind that this is just an intro letter as a show of possible interest and the office matchmakers can and normally will send it to multiple men. Blue letter(s), since they are only intro letters, are only $5.95 to open regardless of your membership status. If you wish not to receive initial/intro letters, you may opt out (see "MY INFO"), and simply initiate any correspondence yourself. We believe that you may be more successful if you choose the women you are interested in and write directly first instead of relying on intro letters as a guide, as many women are flattered to receive an initial letter of interest from the man.

How serious is the woman about me if I receive an Introduction letter?
It depends. In the best case it is only an initial introduction letter either sent at the request of the woman, or sent by the staff, and is normally sent to multiple men. It is difficult to tell how serious anyone is until you meet, regardless of how much correspondence. We strongly suggest that you take the time to view her profile and determine if this is someone that you would send an initial letter to, if so then it may be worth the time exploring. Please keep in mind, a serious relationship (love) requires a special chemistry between the two people. There is no way to truly measure any potential chemistry without meeting in person.

What is more effective: responding to Intro letters or writing to the women I think I am interested in first?
Originally, the only way to start correspondence was for the man to initiate contact. Although we received a lot of requests to allow the women to initiate correspondence from both the men and the women, we still feel the most effective method is for the man to initiate the correspondence himself. We feel that when a man does that the woman feels special; he selected her, and may increase the response rate.

Can I turn off the Introduction letters and just write to women I choose?
Yes. You can turn off the option to receive introduction letters within your member's area.

What about correspondence, does she always come into the office to read my letter?
In some cases she may come to the office to read and respond to your letter. Often our local staff will contact her by phone or some other method in order to arrange for her to get your letter, and even dictate it over the phone, and, hopefully, send you her reply, again which may be dictated over the phone and then translated.

If she has an E-mail address or some other contact information can I ask for it via Express mail?
The International Marriage Broker Regulation Act (IMBRA) requires that, among other things, prior to meeting or exchanging any contact information that she receive the translated version of your IMBRA form and sign it. We then are responsible for holding the form in the event that, at some time in the future, you decide to move forward with a fiancee visa. The USCIS requires a copy of this form in order to process the visa, without the IMBRA form being executed properly the fiancee or spousal visa will be denied.

Some women are willing to sign the form in advance of meeting and some would rather wait until they meet. Many of the women use a Premium Dating site such as this because it gives them, and you, much more support than most other dating sites, and it is much safer for the women to interact with foreign men they are meeting with for the first time, and also provides translation support if needed. There have been many cases where the women release their personal contact information directly, including their phone number, E-mail etc, only to have unwanted repeated contacts (and other unwanted interactions) to the point that they have to ultimately change all their contact information and even delete their profile from the service because of the negative experience. This is less apt to happen if she has the opportunity to meet prior to disclosing personal contact information to be sure there truly is a positive chemistry. Because this is a legal document which we are responsible for if it is ever needed, there is a nominal charge for processing and storing the IMBRA form. That charge is waived in the case of all in person meetings both individual and group tours. In the event that she does sign your IMBRA form and exchange contact information in advance of a meeting, she may still desire to use the service for translation purposes, or for support from the local office.
