What about living together after the Nikah?Tor-wi said:No I was told clearly and even shown the letter which my lawyer received from CIC saying that Nikah is no longer accepted at CIC for spousal immigration. The reason he said is bcz just Nikah is not considered a full marriage and it is only done on paper, previously they accepted it but not anymore (think it was more for wives sponsoring husbands cz they have more chances of doing frauds thru paper marriages like that but obviously they cant just enforce this rule on this basis so they banned it for both). It HAS to be Rukhsati and there has to be pictures and invitation card highlighting the Rukhsati time and place. It is a good thing that you have decided that you will go and do rukhsati in Dec cz else they will give you more trouble and delay your case even more. You left the next day of your nikah which is even more suspicious, it could be taken as you didnt really have too much connection with her, didnt really spend time with her. I am not sure if it is your arrange marriage but since you applied so long ago and it is a husband sponsoring wife case, she should have been here by now...dont waste more time, & I just hope I dont get questioned about my No Valima :'(
I did that .. I went back for 3 months to live with him.
Bcuz the wedding is going to be in Canada.
