Thanks for reading this

My question is

My wife and i have been in a a relationship since 2008 but we lost most of our coversations when the social media "friendster" closed..and whats left are couple of small conversations on yahoo messenger..
So from 2008 til 2011 we have conversations but since that incident it lowered our evidences.. should i gave all we got and explain what happened?

I was on philippines when we started our relationship and continued until we migrate to canada and we really loved each other but i dont know whats the exact thing that i should do to prove our marriage is not for immigration purposes


Another is we got married in aug 17 2014.. i didnt get to sponsor her right away because were still trying to wait for answers if she can still get a green card because she got overaged and at the same time we had a verysmall argument because she doesnt want to leave her parents yet until her parents actually told her and i convinced her to go here and we decided.. should i tell and explain this as well?

Another is.. on the day of the marriage.. all of her family members and all of her friends were present.. but none of my family members were there.. because the marriage was pretty sudden only 1 1/2 months preparation so my family members dont have visa to enter us (which the marriage took place) that time.. they were aware of the marriage and i only have 1 facebook post about my parents and family friends watching our video via skype..
How do you think should i explain this? Is this a red flag?

For proofs.. i always change phone everytime so i didnt have all our text messages.. but.. i can show them a text history from my networkprovider but it only shows our cellphne numbers.. we contacted on skype too we even sleep with skype open.. but skype can only save conversations/call logs until 6months.. as on facebook we dont have much conversations there.. only some comments.. because we only talk on skype and not care about anything else.. because we ussually skype from 4hrs to 26hrs straight

Lets brake this, so other can understand and you can get help, so you guys are in a relationship since 2008 and get married in 2014?? startin to get proff have you guys lived together?? have many things together like join acounts, bills, lease for rent, Etc. Etc. Etc. couze since you dont have a lot of proff of comunication
from emails and phone or others, you would have to collect other kind of proff to show the oficer of your case that your relation is genuine,

you can submit photos - both of you, you with her family, her with your family, on special events, wedding date etc

flight ticket- if you or she travelled for each other (you can ask airline you travelled, they mat be able to get your travel history)

you can explain why your family could not attend wedding on separate sheet of paper: if you are worried , ask your parents to write a supporting letter.

good luck

submit everything that you feel will help proof your relationship. Leave it up to the VO to determine whether it's applicable or not.

I submitted my Rogers pre-paid billing showing just our numbers and sms messages as well the monthly home phone bill also showing just our numbers. I also submitted those calling cards and showed the billings with our phone numbers.

I didn't have much proof since we used text app, not phone app. There was no way to attach thousands of pages.
I only included most recent ones from couple of months ago, couple of screen shots from different dates, one day text app discussing wedding (about 7 pages), flight tickets.
Did you do gift registry for your wedding? or have official invitation? I sent physical invitation and copy of wedding gift registry from amazon.
Since my mother-in-law is very camera shy, I didn't have photo with my in-law's anyways. I just sent 1 photo from every couple of months during relationship from various locations, trips taken together, copy of itinerary.


We didn't apply for PR right away either. I think leave out argument part, but just address that she had to attend to her parents due to an illness(?) and was not emotionally ready..something like that.

I lived in 3 different countries during relationship and we both probably had at least 5 different phone numbers during our relationship.

I think the key is continuous flow of relationship which can be proved by photos over time. I also lost a hard drive that had our photos from 6 yrs ago, so there was also a gap of 9 months of no photo, but our application got approved anyway.

Just fly to your country and get married at any municipal court, in some countries like India if it’s not an Arranged marriage, it’s a process of three months.
If it’s a arranged marriage (i.e. you have parents for both sides) as witness, its matter of few hours and you have a legal document that you are not married
And if you show Pictures, Marriage certificate issued by municipal office, I don’t think you should have any complications
This is how I have done in Year 1995 when I have sponsored my wife

we never lived together.. we were long distance the whole time.. when i was still on Philippines she was already on US.. until i got to canada she was still on US.. but when i went to canada.. i always visit her always.. like 2 times (1month each) in a year.. until we decided that the only way we can be together is just to get her here.. because i have no ways to live to US since shes not eligible to sponsor

and yes our relationship started 2008.. and were just boyfriend girlfriend and we dont things like joint accts etc because were both on a separate country
