Hello. Good day.
I just want to ask. Just please enlighten me. I Want to apply s student visa in Canada.and i want to include my bf in my application. I know that ONLY Husband can be included with the application. Here is the catch. We are both filipino citizen. Working in different countries as for this moment, he is separated with his ex wife, papers for annulment or legal separation was not push since the wife is uncooperative.
My question is.
Are we okay for any marriage in Hong Kong? If ever we are planning for that. So that i can include him with my application.
Is the canada Immigration will grant it?
Please help me. Thank you

hello actually im not really a professional to answer your question everything i share here is based on my own experience but with your status i dont think u guys can get married because anywhere you go even divorce is acknowledge your bf needs a certificate that proves that he is really legally separated. about applying for student visa rule i have no idea, the application that we did was spousal sponsorship so im really sorry i cant give anything specific. have o good day and goodluck

Of course not. He would be committing bigamy and Canada would not recognize the marriage.

Either you need to live together for one continuous year to become common-law or he needs to divorce his spouse outside of the Philippines so that you can marry.

No, a Muslim marriage is not recognized. Bigamy is illegal in Canada.
