GF TRV minor questions

[bkk707]

in form 5257 details of visit to canada section, on the first attempt my GF indicated that I was her "friend" in the relationship box. Should she put "boyfriend" instead? I did indicate in the invitation letter that she was my GF so we weren't trying to hide anything. So better to be consistent?

Also my GF is friends with my sister (just via chat), would it help if she named her as someone she is visiting? She's not staying at her house but she will definitely visit. She has a different surname than mine.

LOL how does it sound sketchy? This seems to be the problem, you mention the B word and everything assumes it's some online relationship with no substance?
We have a bona fide relationship. Since we first met in Bangkok 2.5 years ago, I have made 7 trips to Thailand to visit her and in total we've spent several months together. How do I work this into the application.....possibly in the invitation letter?
