PLEASE HASSAN help me with this question?
My girlfriend went to Canada before 3 months and has permanent card. It is sponsored by the father who has refugee status in protection. Can She turn it in the country of origin to marry with me?Huh?it has a legal right to return to their country of origin and to marry me??? I have 4 years relationship with my girlfriend... Thanks in advance
Hi Eldis,

If your girlfriend is already a permanent resident of Canada, she can marry you and after elapsing a reasonable time can sponsor you under spousal sponsorship program for your PR visa. You guys have to submit lots of relationship proofs to convince CIC that the marriage is genuine. Spousal sponsorship application just after a quick marriage sometimes draw suspicion in the eyes of the visa processing officials.

Hi,

White shirt with a black trouser is a perfect combination for the interview...!

Don't sweat on small stuffs.....just be confident, answer exactly what is asked without unnecessary extension, be courteous, maintain eye contact while answering, most importantly take all important relationship proofs/documents/papers/photos etc. in an organised manner...

Good luck!

Hi Hasan, All,

I am posting the question on this forum for the first time. Found helpful after reading the thread about Spousal interview.

I got the Spousal Interview on the 1st of March 2017. I would like to take suggestions from experienced candidates.

The Girl whom I got married came to Canada on Study Visa in Dec 2015. I'm living here in Canada since Dec 2011 (Came as Student currently Work permit holder) After She came to Canada we met each other via our Families to see each other for marriage. I went to see her in Jan 2016 and then we liked each other and again met few times before taking the decision to get married.
We liked everything and decided to get married. We got married after 3 months in March 2016. It was a small celebration at home in presence of my and my wife's close friends. I applied with for PR under CEC (Express Entry) with my wife in May 2016. Everything has been cleared in the file like Background check , criminal check, PPC etc. in October I received email to pay RPRF, I paid it next day. In November I got email from CIC requesting "Additional Proof Of Relationship", I replied with Marriage photos, our outing pics, emails, gifts proof, Driver's licence(both of us with Same address), Joint Bank account detail, Marriage Certificate. On Feb 16th 2017 I received an email asking for Spousal interview with the Bunch of Documents. It's genuine Marriage.

Please help us preparing for the interview:

1. What could be the reason for being asked for interview? (Quick Marriage?)
2. Marriage was performed without our parents Physical presence (But with their permission) so can we expect questions on that? How we should answer the officer in this regards?
3. What all documents we should present to prove the Relation is genuine?

Please help!!!

Thanks for support in an Advance!!

Please Hassan and friends,

If I'm answering interview questions in a slow and calm way is it good?
Will it show the officer I have confidence or will he said I'm nervous shy or scared?

Answer in such a way that you can explain comfortably...not too slow or too fast...

Why don't you do a couple of self mock video interview and see for yourself how you are doing......correct yourself accordingly!

Hi,

Well it seems to me that the reason for scheduling interview is to get clarifications on certain ambiguity in respect of relationship with your wife. Whether this is a marriage of convenience or not! So it is you to take advantage of the interview to convince your interviewer by explaining logically step by step supported by all possible relationship proofs....anything that will prove without doubt that the marriage is real. Photos, ongoing communication chat logs, Facebook postings, tickets or receipts on vacations, joint insurance, joint lease etc. If the marriage is genuine, just be calm and answer all questions nicely...you will be alright!

Good luck!

Hasan

Parents holding canadian PR and submission of IMM 5604

Hello,

I am confused for CHC new delhi asking IMM 5604.

I am in canada with canadian PR . My wife is in India and has canadian PR. My daughter born in india and recently I sponsored her for canadian PR.
My wife told , she got letter that CHC New Delhi has asked to fill out IMM 5604 and submit copy of photo ID proof. Later, visa officer called my home and talked to my wife and asked about this form ASAP to process daughter's application as medical is now 11 months old.

Any clarification or advise? Why they need IMM 5604 when both parents has canaidan PR and I am sponsoring my child ? It looks weird that I am sponsoring the child and giving NOC as non- accompanying parent???

Thanks in advance.
