Hi All,
I am posting this questions on behalf of my relative.
The sponsor (husband) is a Canadian citizen and he is sponsoring his wife who is in India. Filed family class sponsorship in March-2016. Sponsor was approved and file transferred to New Delhi on first week of May 2016.
At the time of filing application, all applicable details were filled in / declared like: Engagement ceremony done on last week of December-2015, Marriage was performed in a temple in presence of close family members & priest followed by lawyer & marriage registration. No formal grand marriage ceremony or reception was performed at that time due to lack of time and resources on either side.
Subsequently, in a planned manner, the grand social functions like "Sangeet Sandhya", marriage, reception along with all other traditional rituals were performed in the first week of December - 2016. All the evidences are available to show during interview.
Now last week, his wife received an email indicating an interview scheduled for her at the High Commission of Canada, 7/8 Shantipath, Chanakyapuri, New Delhi-110021 in late January - 2016. No other details are specified why this interview? The couple is not having any other abnormal details on age, education, religion, marriage etc.
Questions:
1. What are the details she should keep it with as a part of interview?
2. Shall the wife declare & disclose transparently all the actual details about recent social marriage ceremony?
3. Is it common to have the social marriage performed & declared during the interview with all evidences?
Please reply with guidance for preparing herself for interview. Any other tips?
Thanks
