I’m currently waiting for Alberta government to nominate me. I’ve submitted all the documents on end of May. As I mentioned, my boss is doing everything illegal and treats me like a livestock, so I want to get out of here asap. It usually takes 10 months after submitting documents but I don’t want to work here as I’m being treated like a slave
DID YOU KNOW
Some people think marriage to a Canadian citizen will be their ticket to Canada. You should think carefully before marrying someone and sponsoring them to come to Canada, especially if:
you’ve just met
they want to get married quickly
they’ve been married or in a common-law relationship many times before
they haven’t shared very much information about their background or family
It’s a crime for a foreign national to marry a Canadian citizen or permanent resident only to gain entry to Canada.
Marriages of convenience
In some cases, sponsors and foreign applicants set up a “marriage of convenience.” This is a marriage or common-law relationship whose sole purpose is to let the sponsored spouse or partner immigrate to Canada.
Our officers are trained to recognize real immigration applications. They know how to detect false marriages. They have many ways to spot marriage fraud, including:
document checks
visits to people’s homes and
interviews with both sponsors and applicants
Canadian citizens or permanent residents who are in a marriage of convenience for immigration reasons may be charged with a crime.
