Marriage Certificate ~ Indian Embassy

[bkod1]

Hi,
I am looking for help in the following matter. I got married in India back in 2013 and did not register it. I received ITA couple weeks back and I am in phase of uploading documents. The question I have is, has anyone submit their marriage certificate from Indian Emabssy? if so were there any issues?
I called the Canadian consulate in New York to confirm if they accept it, and one of the representative said it should be fine.

Please comment, if anyone was in the same situation or know anything about it.

Thanks

Some marriage certificates issued at Embassies have date (by which that can be used or will be expired),
Is there something like this mentioned on your marriage certificate?

From which location did you get your marriage certificate?

Well, as per CIC, following are the guidelines. But, I think you should be good with that. Better wait for others to respond.

Marriage certificate
Purpose
To validate marital status claims

Document requirements

• This document is requested only when marital status is listed as married.
• The marriage must be valid under the law of the country where it took place and under Canadian law.
  • A marriage performed in an embassy or consulate must comply with the law of the host country where it took place, not the country of nationality of the embassy or consulate.
• If the applicant married in Canada, a copy of the marriage certificate issued by the province or territory where the marriage took place must be provided.
• If the applicant married outside Canada, a copy of a legal certificate issued by the country, the territory or the region where the marriage took place must be provided.
