Marriage After Meeting: Red Flag?

Dear friends,

My wife and I were acquainted when we bumped into each other in a Facebook group around April 2014. This was followed soon by daily Skype and viber calls which lasted for hours (I am unsure if we have the records), but since late September 2014 until our wedding in January of 2015, and from then to the present day, my wife and I have not been apart. We have consistently lived together.

What worries me is the fact that our co-habitation prior to marriage is only four months. Is this a red flag, i.e. short getting to know period followed by marriage ? Would this be an issue despite four, going on five, years of marriage ?

I’ve heard CIC can cite it as a marriage of convenience and basically ignore the fact of four years of marriage based on the fact that the marriage happened within four months of meeting.

Pretty unusual unless one of you was Canadian especially if you have been living together for 4 years.
