Hello,
sorry to insert this forum, but i also need some advice, coz i am also confused and have some question to ask if you guys have some knowledge.
i am here in Canada right now ,been here since 2011, i have a girlfriend , shes in philippines right now, weve been together since 2013 and now were in relationship for 7years plus.
so now i am going to sponsor her as a conjugal catergory, again were both discreet both sides of the family, but i think im pretty sure they have some hint that we have a relationship. close friends knows us, that we have a relationship, i supported her financially, we have lots to probe that our relationship is genuine, we have joint account since 2014, i sent her some gifts ,and she sent me some letters,we travel together in some islands in the Philippines, Tickets etc. we have a holy union certificate, we got married(like) in the philippines but we knew its not legal but as to show in the future that our relationship is true and genuine..
my question is, is there any chance to approve my application for her to come here with me and live together and get recognize, i cant be with her in a year coz im stil PR and im stil waiting my citizenship result for a exam. first thing also is it really needed to let her come here in canada to apply tourist visa and maybe get deny and using that as a proof?
i read some of here about immigration barrier / need to apply TRV for at least to show about the barrier.
I really appreciate the response.
Thank you
Be Safe you all.
