Canadian Girl Sponsor me

[scylla]

what if we both go to another country and get married. and she go to canada.. and file a case for me.. how long the case will take time?

If you get married the very first time you meet after knowing each other only a few months - then your case will probably take a very long time to process and it might be refused. You have to prove your relationship is real and that you are not using her as a way of getting to Canada. If you have only known her a month and get married right away, there is a very good chance CIC will think your relationship isn't real and will refuse you.

You should wait until you've known each other a lot longer and visit each other a few times before you get married.

At the moment, you are looking at over 2 years for the application to be processed and with so many "problems" it will probably be a refusal.

This has MoC all over it, from a visa officer perspective.

You can go ahead and marry in another country, but your case is very weak (known each other only few months, married after first meeting*), and this will likely cause your case to be refused, and because of that, any future attempts to come to Canada will be scruntinized because it will be on your record.

 

[zardoz]

One other thing that is important to know. You would have to stay together as a cohabiting couple for two years after becoming a permanent resident, or your PR status could be revoked and you would have to return to your home country. So, if you separated or divorced, you could lose your status in Canada and be asked to leave.

This all assumes that you were successful in your application anyway.

Again, see zardoz's post.

To be approved for a tourist visa, you must prove that you have strong ties to your home country and have no plans to remain in Canada long term. If you say that you are coming to Canada to get married, CIC will know you want to stay long term and will refuse your visa because you are not a genuine tourist.

In practice, things may work this way somewhat for people from poor countries. In theory however, Canada allows visitors to have "dual intent". That is, they can both be a bona fide visitor and intend to apply for PR. This will be allowed if the VO is convinced that the visitor will comply with the conditions of their stay and will leave when required (for example, in case their inland PR application is rejected and they don't have any other status).

Fredy do you mean ..may I move for it???

 

[zardoz]

You still have to convince the visa officer that you will comply with the restrictions of a "visitor" visa.

If you can't do that, then "dual intent" gives you no extra benefits. They will not issue a visa.

See http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/manuals/op/op11-eng.pdf section 5.4 for details.

bubblyz4you - how old is the girl you want to marry?

and why do you want to marry her after just one month of talking through Skype? (not judging, just curious)

 

[bubblyz4you]

[Betina]

and why do you want to marry her? so she can sponsor you and make it so you can remain in canada?

@ zardoz - as more facts are emerging from the OP, I think you (and the other members) have called this one accurately. I hope he listens to the good advice he is being provided with, from both a life and immigration process perspective.

 

[krissikris]

in order to sponsor someone you need to show A LOT of proof that the relationship is REAL. you guys should wait and continue your relationship a while before looking to marry and apply, otherwise you could spend a lot of time and money to be refused! immigration is never going to believe that 2 people that met online knew each other for a month then got married and apply is a real relationship! it sounds like someone just trying to get PR in Canada. did you know that with the new rules you have to STAY with this woman for 2 years AFTER the sponsorship is over??

Its people like this that make the process so difficult for all the HONEST people trying to get their families together.

I call "zardoz is right", wrong only in that he called "from a visa officer perspective". I'd say from anyone's perspective . . . Someone wants to come to Canada.
