well i bucked the whole system lol hubby is 6 years older then me!

Well.....my first story was short and sweet, i didn't know we all wanted mushy details so I will give you mine lol My girlfriend was dating a friend of my hubby's and she asked me if I wanted to go for a drive with her as she had to take her boyfriends friend to simcoe to see his brother who was up in Canada on farm work so I said sure, i got nothing better to do might as well. When I got out of the car there is my hubby sitting on the porch just waiting and when i walked past him he spoke saying "whats up girl, looking good" I just laughed him off and thought "whatever" to myself. Well the whole night visiting his brother he keep telling all the guys on the farm to take their eyes off me as I was taken......not that I understand him at the time because I had never been around Jamaican people before and as you know they talk faster then fast lol well we dated for a bit before I ended up moving in with him. I always said that God put us together at that time because we both needed each other, he had just lost his daughter 6 months earlier as she was killed by gunmen in JA and i had just seperated from a 20 year marriage that I had with my children's father. We helped each other to get through the rough times and it has been history since then. We got married in January of last year, it was kind of a big affair as I have a huge family but it was beautiful and I wouldn't change it for nothing. 3 days after the wedding, we had a meeting with immigration as my hubby had applied for refugee after his daughter was killed but he was denied and they told him he had 20 days to leave Canada and go back to JA, we begged the officer to give us a little more time and he extended it to 30 days. In February he went back to JA. This process has been really taxing and I am one to really hold things in but I am really losing it this weekend as it is my 1st anniversary and couldn't even spend it with my hubby. I guess we can all have bad days eh!

Thanks to everyone for sharing their stories, it really give you a sense of the other people to hear their life stories also especially when we are all going thru this at the same time.

Blessings

Happy anniversary girl

My story . Before I went down to JA I was so deppressed at that time I didn't realize it until I healed myself I could look back and see how unhappy I was. I did everything to make myself happy. I bought my house, I owned my own jeep and I had a good job, but for some reason I felt like I had failed myself. I had just left my baby father who was a selfish man. I was exsisting for my kids but not living. My husband is a close friend of my family in jamaica. So one night we were playing dominoes and I was losing. My husband gave me six love, so I was getting up because I lost and my hubby said to me don't get up play again better luck next time. Those words was like magic to my ears because I played again and I gave all of them six. When he said that to me it changed my life forever because I took it as You made mistakes in life, but don't give up brush yourself off try again( better luck next time) and I did just that sounds funny but for weeks that all I heard in my head. I came back home thinking about him like crazy. but I was afraid because of our age difference 7 years apart. We started talking and our relationship grew stronger and stronger and then his age didn't matter to me anymore. I remember sitting in church asking God what is it about this guy and I got my answer. You don't fall in love with someone because of what they look like or because of what they do. Love is beyond the flesh I didn't even realize my hubby was good looking until after, his body is just his body. Inside of our body is our soul. We had a connection and that's when I realize that he was God sent. God knew what I needed and God sent the right person to pull me up. I have been travelling there ever since. on Jan 1 2012 on my birthday we decided to get married because we love each other and we want to be with each other for the rest of our lives on Jan 6 2012 we got married. Some of my family wasn't happy about it because he's poor and not educated but my to me is the richest man out their because his heart is of gold and the wisest because it was like God himself was talking to me. I am now living and loving life and I have learned to have faith in God trust him and believe him. Sorry guys I know it's long and this is a short version.

Lovely story and happy anniversary to you

Wow. I enjoyed reading all the love stories. How mushy! I met my husband on a summer vacation to Canada 8 years ago. I remember going to a camp organised by a cousin of mine and woke up to the most lovely voice in the kitchen who was asking my cousin how he wanted his eggs done. I thought I better got out of bed to meet this person and i saw a very tall handsome young man who my cousin introduced me to. He made NA breakfast - eggs, pancake, and bacon etc. We had breakfast together and as I was leaving that day, I heard someone running behind me and he asked me if he could have my email address. We exchanged email address and to date, 8.5 years after, I still have his on the envelope he wrote his. About a month later, I got an email from him reminding me who he was and that we had breakfast together even though briefly. I asked him how was the weather and he said it was very lovely (Fall) but he said he could bet I was even more lovelier! A few weeks after he asked me for my tel. no. but I didn't want to appear too accommodating especially as it was very early days, so I hesitated but eventually I did as he wasn't that pleased about my not giving it to him. We spoke twice/daily on the phone - first thing as I woke up and last thing before going to bed. By the following month it was my birthday and he called and sang happy birthday to me. As things seemed to have been heating up, I decided I needed to introduce him to my mom on the phone. She asked him if he was in love with her daughter and he said, "I'm smitten by her!". She of course could hardly understand his Cdn accent but I figured by the tone of his voice she felt that he had said some sweet words as they brought a smile to her face. We could not contain our feelings and by Dec of that same year I returned to Canada on Boxing Day to spend the rest of the Christmas holidays with him. It was a Dec. to remember! Having only seen him once, even though there were pics, I wasn't sure what to expect at the airport but while I waited I felt a tap on my shoulder and without looking at the person, a voice asked, "excuse me mam, what time is it?". As I turned around to look at my watch, my brain told me to look at the face! As I turned around again I saw an even more handsome man all dressed in black glasses and black suit (he was coming from church) and I called his name in a questioning manner and he said yes and smiled, and we just hugged. Our relationship blossomed over the years and I visited annually, but I was not able to migrate at the time and he wasn't all keen in leaving Canada at the time. However, 4 years later after we met, he decided if I really couldn't come to him then he would come to me! I was shocked but I guess that's what love does. So he relocated to Ja and shortly after we tied the knot. We have now decided however to live in Canada especially as I no longer have any ties to Ja. as before. And so the rest is history. I await my PR!

Hi everyone, can some please let me know how do i go about a letter from my husband babymother to give him permission to allow child to migrate. She doesn't know what to state in the letter and i have no clue. Help!! Thanks lots. My husband is solely responsible but didnt bother to go through courts since the mother allowed the child to live with him.

Relaxgurl, she can fill out the form found here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/forms/IMM5604E.pdf

This declaration gives consent for a minor child to emigrate from the non-accompanying parent.

Hello everyone!

Hope all is well- Kingston is off to a slow start this month
Hopefully next week is a better week. Kingston received my medical redo results mid December & said they have to be assessed thru their medical department and still waiting....

Anyone know how long it is from when they receive ur medical redo to issuing the visa???
And is this usually the last thing to do if they already requested passport?

 

[CharlieD10]

It took about 3 weeks from my medical re-do for them to request my passport, and another 2 weeks to get it back. I would say hold tight, your time is coming shortly, remember there were a few holidays in the past 3 weeks since you submitted your new medicals. Start preparing your mind to leave, it is no longer a case of if, it is a case of how much longer you have left in Jamaica, and it won't be very long in the scheme of things!
