Hi everyone!
My American fiance and I have been looking at ways to get him up to Canada for our wedding. The issue is that we need him to be able to work after we get married and start living together. The solution we've tentatively come up with is to get married at a courthouse and then do our permanent residency application while he still lives in the states and I still live in Canada and then have our wedding (just a ceremony and reception minus the signing of papers etc since we'd have already done that) once his permanent residency has been approved, that way after our actual wedding we can live together as a married couple without such a fuss.
I'd love to hear what other people have to say about this and if it would actually work or if our relationship will be seen as ingenuine because we didn't have a 'real' wedding. just went to the courthouse and signed the papers.
