INTER RELIGION / FAITH MARRIAGE & OUT LAND SPOUSAL

[Shivaliwalia]

Same here! We are getting married next year after 8 yrs of LDR. We belong to different faiths ( in reality we follow none) and different countries and our country of residency are also different from citizenship. We hold Indian and Iranian citizenships, where is everybody else from? May be we can support each other on this forum.
Please keep us posted about the process..
Best Wishes!

Indian n pakistani

I'm not sure why people keep bringing up religion when it comes to immigration. No where on any of the forms are you asked to disclose your religion. In Canada it is highly illegal for the government to ask any such questions, Its irrelevant to any services the government provides. At MOST , its a minor foot note to explain why a religious wedding may not have been attended by one side of a family who foolishly chooses to let religion get in the way of celebrating a family members union.

As zardoz said, incorrect. IRCC is not interviewing job candidates. They are verifying whether a relationship is genuine in order to allow a foreign national to immigrate to Canada. They at religions, ages, cultures, language abilities, education levels, etc. They even look at physical appearance. If there is an interview, they will ask applicants extremely personal questions about a range of topics from personal history to how often they have sex with their partner.

I am telling my circumstances, I did not say CIC is going to discriminate my file based on our religions. But thanks for replying

Hi Everyone ,
I have a few questions about spousal sponsorship process, i hope to receive some answers from this forum :

1) Me and my fiancee are planning to get married in 2 months time , The wedding is a simple beach wedding with just 4 of us participating (my family, me ,her) Its a destination wedding at Seychelles. Her parents would not participate as they disapprove of this marriage , We are both from different religions , hence the disapproval. our relatives also will not be informed as we will conduct a reception a year after the marriage.

2) Me and my fiancee have been together for the past 10 years , I can provide supporting documents for proof of relationship , Whats app chats , joint bank accounts , hotel bills, pictures during the timeline, letter from our mutual friends and my family etc , After marriage we would not like to disclose our relation ship on social media , will that raise a red flag?

3) I have already applied for a TRV before , in order to follow the inland sponsor ship process, I was denied entry due to lack of travel history .

Can sm1 help me on this , Tough times are ahead, I would just like to know if my spousal sponsorship process would go through.

Thanks

Hey Tim, wondering if your application came through. Me and my boyfriend are in the same interfaith boat. We're both worriers so just want to do everything as right as we possibly can :/

Great idea to support each other. My brother and his wife are atheists. My brother’s daughter (my niece) recently admitted me that she believes in God but is afraid to tell her parents about it. My brother’s a good man, but I’m not sure he will back her on this. Now I pick up my niece every weekend, and we go to church together, and I’ve also enrolled her in a Sunday online school of religion: https://chufirstrchlove.com. I have to lie to my brother not to break my niece’s heart. What should I do in this situation? Should I talk to my brother?
