Will marriage fraud report affect immigration in the future ?

[lemat]

Hello, a few years ago I and a man arranged a fraud marriage. He has very high CRS score, so I and he got marriage and we planned to immigrate to Canada via Express Entry. I gave him 50k CAD as a part of the deal and I would get PR. Unfortunately I didn't have enough money and had to cancel the plan. We got divorce, he subbmited the application for himself only. I dont know if his application was successful or not.

Now I have a lot of money and want to do it the right way. I intend to get PR via Start-up visa program

If someone knew about my fraud marriage, they had proofs and reported me to IRCC. Will the report affect my application in Start-up visa?

Yes, if they reported it with proof and IRCC looked into it, it will affect your application. It may not prevent your application, but it will affect it.

Technically, my crime has not been commited yet. We got divorce before he applied for PR
If IRCC noticed it, will there be any record?

Can I access that record through a lawyer? I want to see if I am suspected by IRCC or not

Probably not. Anything relating to the enforcement of a crime is not discloseable. You're only going to find out once you apply.

Then I better invest to another country to immigrate instead
