Dear Forum Members,
Need your help to decide about the future steps. I got my immigration visa in April 2014 and landed in June as single. After completing the landing formalities I came back to UAE where I am working since 5 years. Now I got engaged and will get marry next year depending about the immigration scenarios. I will highly appreciate the answers of the questions:
1. If I get marry now and bring my spouse here in UAE then can I apply for spouse PR while living in UAE?? (Like if I shall go there for one month and file application from there)
2. If above is not possible then I shall go for Nikkah only and then move to Canada immediately. Can I apply for spouse visa on the Nikkah only? (As I hear from some people the CIC is asking for marriage pix and other stuff)
3. If I have to go for above second scenario then can I apply for spouse visa before getting any job there in Canada???
Thanks....
Following are the answers to the queries:
Ans.1) No, You have to be in CA after applying spouse sponsorship OUTLAND; it is the rule that sponsor has to live most of the time in CA after filing spouse sponsorship case; Yes he/she can go outside CA and visit the spouse for FEW WEEKS only.
Ans.2) Nikah only cases can also be applied but CIC gets conscious about such cases are asks for more proofs of relation to know it is genuine. You have to make your case foolproof if wanna go with this option, each simple point should be very much clear and correct. Yes the pics, engagement ceremony pics, guests record and contact numbers of few closed relatives who attended the ceremonies (Eng. Nikah). then after that Phone calls record, messages record, FB/Whatsapp/Skype chats and call logs etc. So in short Nikah case can also be filed but after making your application so strong.
Ans.3) Yes you can apply, CIC has nothing to do with income of the sponsor, clearly written on the website, but there are few fields related to Job/emp/tax etc; you may file your case after getting advice on this 3rd question.
Wish you all the best
