2015 JANUARY - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICATION

[realismsleeve]

Yes, it was arranged marriage. My parents and his parents were present in the court. With our parents consent we got married

You need to follow the instructions on the CIC website for spousal sponsorship, it is too much work for somebody on here to explain all the documents that you need to submit. One piece of advice is that as well as a document checklist for the application there is a document checklist for the country you are applying from, that will give you specific information regarding documents needed from your country.

I am not trying to be mean but this thread is for January applicants, we have all spent weeks and months preparing our applications so you will need to do the same rather than asking everything that you need.

I can answer your marriage question, it does not matter if you had a ceremony or a reception, as long as it is a legally binding marriage in India then it is valid. You will however need to include proof that it is genuine, when you fill out the forms you will answer the questions about the wedding and include additional proof such as photographs. Arranged marriages are fine, they are part of Indian culture. I would recommend letters from your parents stating that it is your culture to arrange a marriage and anything esle you can do to show that it is not a marriage for the purpose of a canadian visa but a natural marriage as part of your culture. The main issue that CIC are looking for is that it is not a scam marriage for the sake of a visa, provide as much information as you can to show that to show them that this is not the case. Of course an arranged marriage will need more proof than ones which are not and your processing time may take a bit longer but no one knows for sure, each case is unique.

You will need a copy of your marriage certificate translated and notified in your application.

Read through that link thoroughly, if you have any specific questions then it can be answered here. Good luck.

Up to about December 19-22 now for AOR, it will be even quicker than 82 days for Jan applicants.My best guess is in the 70's.

Somebody removed my details from the spreadsheet, not sure why, I added it again but my days since app sent are not showing so I left it off. Whoever did that should stop because this forum helps alot of us track our apps and it doesn't feel nice when our details are messed with.

Does anyone know the email address of the CPC Mississauga from which we will receive official notification of AOR and SA? I'd like to put the address in my contacts so that the email doesn't end up in spam. TIA

I reaaalllyyy hope your prediction is correct! That would mean about 10 more days for me and that sounds so much more do-able than 30 more days of torture! I can't wait till we start getting news of January app's receiving AOR..!

Hi Guys ! I am new here, it's really useful forum to discuss a lot of things about visa applications and really supporting.

I am PR holder living in Canada, married last year in India. I have sent my application on January 22, 2015. Still not got any reply or AOR? In my application, I have put myself as still looking for job, because after returning here in January, I couldn't able to find any job. But just got a job, gonna start from next week. Do I need to sent my employment letter to Immigration Canada?

I am so much confused?
