maybe talk to a marriage lawyer before you state this so confidently.
the law has some funny notions that might not match up with our personal codes.

this is a two way street, buddy. I've asked people numerous times to provide any sort of legal context for what constitutes marriage fraud, so far none of the loudmouths have.
If it's a tax benefit for him, that might mean it's the opposite for you. Can get kinda tricky splitting the tax refund and whatnot too fairly, your deductions and all that will be different, etc.
Don't personally have any qualms with someone doing this but do the math and really put some thought into how you'll agree to handle things. There's also the fact that if you do create your own independent development business while married it becomes marital property.
Probably not worth it.

Fraud-wise, can't say. Otherwise, I feel like this has a lot of potential to get screwed up and bite you on the ass somewhere down the line. I wouldn't do it, honestly.

it's fucking nuts that people think asking a software engineer to go deliver packages for 57% of their week is somehow better than going through the legal construct to entitle them to health insurance, solely because they feel like this is fraud (hint: it's not).
Numerous marriage experts there saying no, this is not fraud.

My company has been in operation since 2014, is incorporated (I merely own the largest stake) and is an LLC.
Krejlooc I mean, do this if you want. But just make sure you dudes write up a nice prenup so nothing gets sticky. Note, this isn't just for when you guys divorce to end the benefits (maybe because you guys met someone you want to marry). It's also for the unlikely, but horrible, event one of you dies unexpectedly.
unlike your potential marriage, this is so not a two way street, my guy. usually you have to pay people to provide legal advice, when you want it to be useful, accurate, and not done for the amusement of people willing to see harm done to you as a diversion. just because no one has loaded up jstor for a bunch of reference links doesn't mean your state or local whatever won't torch your pending nuptials if you give them an excuse.
i'm just saying maybe go to a pro for advice, not a game forum, and the absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
Please hire a lawyer because..
... you have more than just this marriage thing that you need to talk to someone about.

I urge you to heed this advice.
Please. For the love of god don't take legal advice from the internet...talk to a lawyer.

We're going to lock this thread, because the framing is insensitive towards LGBTQ+ relationships. The intent may not have been to insult, but to take advantage of a right that the LGBTQ+ community has fought and fights so hard for is not something we want to host a discussion on.
