*** Need Help for Spousal Sponsorship ***

[canadavisa19]

Dear Members,
I want to sponsor my wife and she is my 2nd wife. I divorced my first wife on January 2018 and she registered a marriage case to get "Denmohorana"(which is already pain after few day) money and it's still running. I went to Bangladesh and meet both family on 15th September. The meeting was arranged by a matchmaker. On that day we discussed about out situation and expectation from each others. After that we talked 2/3 times over phone and did chat on Facebook few time and finalized our decision. As I had one month vacation so without wasting time We became husband and wife on 21-August 2019 and it's an arranged marriage. Around 120(25 from our side and rest from my wife's family+relatives+neighbors) people were present. The wedding ceremony was arranged at her location and according to Islamic shariah we finished our marriage. We couldn't go for honeymoon because we were not prepared for a journey and lack of vacation days. We stayed at home, went around, went to relatives house and meet with friends.

Now :
1) How should I explain about the marriage which is organised at her location and only close relatives+friens were present.
2) We even did not exchange rings, like engagement.
3) we don't have previous conversation before marriage.
4) We didn't go for honeymoon.
5) We have very less marriage pictures. As it was not properly organised.
6) After our marriage, we didn't visit each other(I don't have leave and she didn't get Visitor visa)
7) As my ex-wife registered a case and it's still running, so, will it be an issue for the application.
8) We have messenger call & chat history + transfer money receipts + letters we exchanged + gift money receipt that I sent+marriage certificate+confirmation letter from parents

Is there any red flag, where I should work? Based on that how can I prepare the application package. Thanks in advance.

Items 1-7 of your list are red flags.

Talking 2-3 times before marriage is a red flag.

I would advise you to spend time with your new wife, go on a honeymoon, etc., because it looks like this is a fake marriage for immigration purposes.

Just want to mention that it’s a common in Bangladesh like matchmaker

Thank you k.h.p.
Just to mention, Arrange marriage like this is very common in south Asia region. To spend time we have to stay together but I'm working in Canada and I don't have enough vacation, also my wife does not have visa to come here and spend some time with me. She applied for visitor visa but refused. And If I have to go then I need at least 15 days vacation which I don't have right now. So either I have to wait for a year or if you suggest me to collect any other valid document which can make the application strong.

There aren't specific documents you can provide; the visa officer will be looking for photos and evidence of an actual relationship. You need to actually spend time with your wife.

I'm not saying you can't apply, but I will say that a visa refusal for a lack of a relationship will be hard to deal with.

Thank you, let's see how it goes. Because long distance relationship is very painful.

You can make a checklist and enrich your documents day by day. We took two months to organize our documents and proof of relationship. After that we applied, the application is still processing. You can download all the forms and read them. Make a checklist which documents you lack most, work on them. After that, apply. We know how it feels to be separated from each other after marriage. Good luck being together!

Pretty sure you posted a few days ago and you are not divorced from your first wife so your 2nd marriage won’t be recognized.

Agree that there is a ton of red flags even for arranged marriages. No first meeting where the match is made and essentially the couple is engaged. It is more common for a person to return to get married after a match has been made and there is time to prepare for a wedding. Your biggest issue is that Canada will not recognize you are married.

No in case of first marriage we are divorced. After 1.5 yr I married my second wife.
In Bangladesh it's very common to marry someone with whom you never met before. Before marriage both family check each others bio date if it's fine then they meet and discuss about each others questions, findings and expectations. If everything matches then seniors from both family sit together and fix a date of marriage. Even in some cases both family meet and on the same day they finish the marriage procedures, may be later they do the reception and other events.
