Hi
I would need advise from senior members regarding my situation. I stated my wife as a childhood friend to bring her over to Canada after marriage. She is already here and we are now planning to file for her sponsorship application. We got married two months after she got her visa in our home country. At the time of our entry to Canada, we were asked by the CBSA offcer that why didn't i mention in the invitation letter that she was more than a friend? I told that we were not dating or engaged at that time (which is true as this being an arranged marriage), he allowed us entry with a time limit for which I have already applied for extension. I went to a immigration lawyer and hes asking us to put the actual events as they've happened in our story rather than what I've already stated to the CBSA officer and on the invitation letter. I met my wife in my home country and liked her, we did not get engaged that time as we still needed more time; I came back to Canada and applied for her visitor visa stating her to be a childhood friend (what other relation should I've written she wasn't a fiance or a girlfriend) she never came to Canada alone and we came together after our marriage. Now what should I write in the spousal application where they ask for the details on when and how did the relationship progressed and other details?
