Hi everyone,
Im sure some of you have read my other posts, as there have been many! I just have a question dealing with being inadmissible to Canada.
Background:
1.) Met my Albanian husband late October early November 2008 while I was on vacation in Greece and he was there working illegally.
2.) After maintaining a relationship via the phone for 6 months I moved to Greece where he and I lived together for 4'ish months. He was then deported to Albania at which time I moved him him to Albania for 3.5 months.
3.) We applied for a Visitor Visa on which we told some lies (just weren't thinking,didn't know much of the process, and it seemed like a good idea at the time - which now haunts me daily)
3b.)My mother invited him, she stated that we met in Albania, when we really met in Greece.
3c.) We said he had never been deported or detained.
3d.) He was issued a passport with the wrong birth date, it was off by a day, we tried to get it fixed - they said that it was correct. It was not correct, since then they have fixed it and issued him a birth certificate & passport with the correct birth dates.
So either way he was denied the visa, the Immigration Officer was worried he wouldn't leave when the visa expired.
The issue I have now is this: Because of these lies, can he be found inadmissible to Canada? I knew these past lies would work against us, and I didn't think they would make us inadmissible which is what an immigration adviser suggested to me ..... Or would they have deemed him inadmissible on the "refusal" letter that they sent? And if he is inadmissible what can we do? Or is that sort of "the end of the line"?
Every time I feel as though we are making headway with the application, and getting close to shipping it off I feel like we get knocked back down to a starting point. This process is so tiring, stressful, and emotionally draining. Sometimes I just wonder what the point of moving to Canada really is. I was completely content in Albania, despite the poor living conditions & lack of work it was nice, cheap, friendly people and I enjoyed my time there. Im starting to wonder if having higher wages, better health care, and less power outages is really worth my sprouting grey hairs in my bangs (Im 21!!). I would be happy anywhere in the World, as long as I had my husband with me........ Im sure many people feel this way though at least sometimes?
