Hi! Me and my wife also applied on December 2010. With me being her dependent since she has already taken her IELTS exam. Initially, we applied as common-law partners since hindi pa kami kasal that time. Everything was running smoothly until such time na naghanap ng further evidences ang Canadian Embassy na we really are living together. That's the time na we decided to get married on june 23, 2011. We submitted our marriage certificate and pictures as proofs that we really got married as to make our relationship legitimate. Nag E-mail na rin ang Canadian Embassy saying that a personal interview is required for our application to further assess our qualification on August 22, 2011. They asked us to bring NSO marriage certificate, Letter from the solemnizing officer who solemnize our marriage and his basis of article 34, further proofs of our relationship.
Ask ko lang po sana if there's anyone here with the same situation. Or if anyone has an idea if what could be the possible question. And what would be the interview setting would be like. Thanks po sa reply and good luck satin lahat!
hi... dalhin nyo po yung pwede nyong dalhin to prove na nagsasama kayo ng CLP mo ng mahigit isang taon bago kayo nag-apply ng PR for canada. From photos of you, together and with your immediate families of both sides. joint accounts bearing your names together, receipts, mails/any correspondents of either you or her to prove na sa iisang house lang kayo nakatira at lahat na ng makita nyo, pati bllings statements nyo na me pangalan mo o pangalang ng wife mo... may i asked kung me anak na kayo? coz that itself is a solid proof of your relationship. kung wala pa naman, as i said lahat ng pwede mong makalkal sa baul, na pwedeng magpatunay na nagsasama nga kayo, dalhin mo. did you submit an affidavit of cohabitation and affidavit from your parents, yours and hers? if not, might as well prepare those...
as for interview, some people i met here, but who are pre june, says that the interview questions regarding CLP relationships revolve around your relationship. yung iba nga daw, magkahiwalay pang ininterview just to prove na nagtutugma mga sinasabi nila... siguro naman tanda nyo when kayo at how kayo nagkakilala, kelan kayo naging mag-on, kelan kayo nagdecide magsama as husband and wife. itatanong din nyan sa inyo bakit ngayon lang kayo nagpakasal...
don't worry, as long as genuine ang relationship nyo ng partner mo, malalagpasan nyo yung interview. just be honest at be true to everything that you says during the interview...
hope this helps.... good luck!
