Hi Guys,
I am from Karnataka,INDIA
I was recently called to New Delhi for the VISA Interview.
I have applied for PR and I come under spousal sponsorship.
The application for Immigration was submitted sometime in May, after my wedding(in April) with a Canadian Citizen and after
a long slog through for preparing the required documents.
I had my wedding ceremony on 8th of April, 2012. This was indeed a small ceremony conducted, as my husband had to leave
back to his town on urgency note. We then submitted for the visa application.
I basically come from a orthodox Hindu family. The older people at my place demanded to see their only grand daughters
wedding happen lavishly.
To satisfy their wishes, we then decided sometime in september to conduct some of the holy rituals as a part of already
happened wedding.
My husband came all the way from canada, leaving behind his work, only to satisfy the wishes of our very elders.
After a while later, I received an email from CIC in september, after this set of rituals. I was asked to send out
photographs of my wedding, the chats that i exchanged with my husband and some of my other required identity proofs with an
enclosing letter.
In the enclosing letter, we mentioned about the wedding that happened in April, we spoke about the rituals that we
performed in september too.
The photos that we enclosed did collectively had some clicked during April function and some clicked during the ritual
ceremony.
As days passed, things were really good with us with a built up dream to join my husband on the faster note.
One fine friday morning, in october, I received an email from CIC, which read out that I am called for an interview.
I was excited and my fingers went crossed, hoping for the good response after my stimulus presence at the interview.
But, I must say, my interview was bad and screwing.
Here I go with my interview experience:
I had my interview scheduled initially @ 9:30AM. I was called in @ 10:25AM and the interview did last for hardly bad 20-30
mins.
There was an Indian lady in the interview cabin. She was sweet to me for a minute or two. She demanded for the marriage
certificate. I showed her the one that I carried with me. She then asked me to brief about my relationship~ The wedding
date, how did i come in contact with my husband before the wedding, How well settled is my husband now in Canada, his
education, his current job, about my in-laws, about my family, about my career plans after my relocation to Canada.... and
what not.
Below are my replies for the Qs posed by her:
-> How did you come in contact with your so called husband, before the wedding did really happen?
Me and my sponsor(husband) came across in the matrimony site. We exchanged few emails and found to be compatible. We then
decided to tie knots on April8th, 2012.
-> The interviewer then posed few Qs about my family, my husband's family, mu husband's work position, his living position
etc etc.
After this above sequence of Qs, She asked me, if I did get married in April at all or just submitted the fake reports for
the visa purpose.
This ruined my feelings. This put a fullstop for the dreams that I built all the way from April
The interviewer suspected about the wedding that happened in April. She argued that the wedding happened for sure but,
happened in September and I am falsely terming the occasion as rituals, instead of the actual wedding.
I tried convincing her with the photographs and the marriage certificates that I loyally obtained after my wedding in
April.
The interviewer was not satisfied with my supporting documents. She initially gave back my passport and said, she gives up
here for the cause.
I continued to talk politely and sticked to my disciplines and tried to convince her. After a mean while of arguments, she
took back my passport stating, I can get it back with/without visa stamped.

Guys, Please let me know, how this will be treated at their end? I am really worried about this.
I am just hoping to join my husband at the earliest and pursue my education. I have couple of exams to be taken, for which
my passport is needed.
I have plans for pursuing my studies in a good university @ Ottawa, for which some plans are made and my husband is doing
his best to get me into the college that he studied in for MS degree.
It's been close to 2 weeks, that I had had my interview and my passport is retained by them.
Can i expect my visa at this state? Please let me know.
Also, is there a possibility of just mailing my passport without providing the visa.
This is just bothering me day and night.
And, it's closer to an year to celebrate my wedding anniversary
And the pain is that I have still not joined my husband.
I am helpless.
Kindly put in your thoughts here and educate/advice me accordingly.
