Hi Everyone,
I really need your help.
I am aspiring to apply under FSW program this year possibly submit my application this October (I still lack my IELTS exam which I will be taking this September). But I have some issues that I need clarification and help with.
Here's a background of my story .
Way back 2000 I was forced by my gf's parents to marry her who gave birth to a child I'm not sure is mine. They did it abruptly just before I left abroad to Taiwan for work. After few years, I found out she's already living with another man and have a couple of children with him. I remarry thinking that the previous marriage was not officially recorded since no preparation was done (no ring, no seminar, etc). The marriage was just conducted by his uncle who I think was a mayor (an official in a city) at that time. Now, that second marriage did not work well too. I later found out that she just ran my money with her but we didn't have children.
Now, I'm happily living with my common-law partner for 3 years now. We have a 2 year old son. Even if I wanted to rectify everything for them it isn't that easy and practical at this point considering the financial burden and the ugly relationship I have with my ex (1st) and it 's a very lengthy process (Philippines). I'm not getting younger (turning 40). I wanted to be able to provide a better life for my family away from conflicts with my ex. The only way I believe that could help me with this is migrating with my family to Canada.
I admit I made a lot of mistakes in the past and I've suffered the consequences of them in many ways. I just really want to start anew with my life.
I apologize for the lengthy details.
Here are my concerns:
1.) My status in my papers is showing single. I am in fact married twice but has been separated for more than 10 years. Will this complicate my declaration?
2.) Will I still be admissible even if I was married twice? I'm planning to bring my common-law partner and later my son as well.
3.) I have another dependent from 1st ex-wife, but I don't have plans of sponsoring them now or in the future, she's 17 and in the full custody of her mother. As much as possible, I don't want to give any of them hints about my plan because I know for sure they will only make this whole thing complicated. Possibly asked for more financial assistance which I am already doing (w/c by the way is the reason why I wanted to migrate because I need to earn more). In short I just want to avoid any additional conflicts I want things to be simplified this time. Can I not declare them as my dependents?
I appreciate your wisdom and advise on this matter. I'm sincerely hoping you can enlighten me.
Thank you in anticipation.
