Q: Given a travel related situation, and given a specific question about the situation, summarize the question into a title
A Jamaican committed marriage fraud about 30 years ago by marrying a US citizen in a marriage where the groom was paid a certain amount of money to marry her. The groom got in legal trouble for an unrelated matter, and the marriage fraud was discovered and the family friend was deported back to Jamaica. She no longer has any paperwork involved with the deportation and she can't remember any of the details. I do not know if she simply agreed to return to Jamica when the fraud was discovered, or if she made any attempts to mount any type of legal defense in the case. I do know that she was cooperative with the immigration authorities and that they did not have to come looking for her.
She would like to come the USA for a two-week visit. The main purpose of the visit is for her to visit a friend (US citizen) who is terminally ill.

I have been looking at 8 U.S.C. 1182 and from my reading of it, it would seem that she would not be admissible to the US because of the previous immigration fraud. My understanding is based on the section that says:

In general.-Any alien who, by fraud or willfully misrepresenting a material fact, seeks to procure (or has sought to procure or has procured) a visa, other documentation, or admission into the United States or other benefit provided under this Act is inadmissible.

What's not clear to me is if this means that she would be inadmissible permanently or if this would be subject to the 10 year limit. Can anyone help provide some clarity on this? If the ban is not permanent are there any tips to being able to increase her chances of being able to get a visa. She intends to honestly answer all questions during her application process for a visa.

A:
Is the ban on applying for a US visa after marriage fraud a lifetime ban or 10 years?
