What you're talking about is perpetrating a fraud on the government. I highly suggest you reconsider.

Don't get married. Any marriage, formally recognized by the US or not would probably disqualify you from the benefits if being single is a condition. Just stay together without getting married. You can draft a will, powers of attorney, etc., that will allow you to live as if married without having to actually do so.
