Hi everyone. Me and my wife are extremely frustrated and worried about the inland sponsorship application currently in progress.
We met each other online in spring 2012, and a few weeks after we saw for the first time in Canada (my wife was visiting relatives in Canada). We were dating and in two months we already found that my wife is pregnant. She was planning to stay in Canada juts for 5 months as a tourist and then leave Canada. This was her second trip to Canada and at that time (still now), she was waiting for decision under Provincial skilled worker program. We did not plan and expect that our relationships will develop this fast. Of course we felt in love, we spoke about our future and were making plans, but neither I nor my wife (girlfriend at that time) were thinking of having a child this quick. My wife was visiting relatives and had no permanent immigration status in Canada, so she was supposed to leave Canada soon. We did not have much time to learn good enough each other before getting married and as a result our relationship went nuts. We have started arguing and misunderstanding each other. One day after her verbal abuse I slapped my wife on face, my wife's sister called the police in the end I was charged for domestic assault and restrained from my family. Since my wife is taking care of our baby, not working and staying in Canada as a person under sponsorship, she had no money. She had no choice and applied for spousal and child support. We could not agree on this matter face-to-face because of the restraining order. She was also under the influence of her relatives. Separation process was started.
My family lawyer has suggested to advise immigration authorities about what was happening with my relationships and drafted a letter which was sent to CIC Ottawa and CIC Vegreville by fax. The letter was saying that I was charged, we are separated and I am afraid that my wife is trying to take advantage of me. All this was driven by emotions, frustration and hopelessness that one day everything will be OK. I did not and was not even thinking to withdraw the sponsorship application.
Now, the separation process has been cancelled (my wife withdrawed the application at the court), we live together. I still have charges, but was not convicted. There is a possibility that I will be charged, but since the accident has happened in Quebec, there is a change that I will get an absolute discharge.
A few days ago we have applied for extension of her status as a visitor. Also, at the end of November 2013 we have got a letter from CIC that her file has been sent to local office in Ottawa. It happened 4 day after the accident between us happened.
We also sent a letter to CIC Ottawa explaining what was going on with us and what stage our relationships are currently in and the reason what I sent a letter previously.
If someone can advice us of the consequences, what possibly can happen and may be give us some advice, we both would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you all in advance.
