Hello beautiful people.
I need some advice and help..
I am now a Canadian citizen.
My partner and I met 15 years ago in August 2003; at the time I was in a abusive relationship, fear for my life.
2 years later; in 2005, we started a romantic relationship but in January 2006 I migrated to Canada because I feared for my life because of my previous partner.
12.5 years later my partner and I still keep in contact regularly but he still thought it was an opportunity I had why I left St.Vincent. Until a few months ago after I told him that I cannot move back to live with him; still embarrassed to explain why and what he (my ex) did to me when he [my partner] is at sea, I had no choice to let him know that my ex boyfriend threatened my life and I was afraid to tell him because I was in fear of losing him; lost his life, by going to confront him [my ex] so I had to leave to keep us both safe.
Before I left he made me make a promise to him that we’ll never make commitment to anyone else and that we’ll be together again one day. Since I left in January 2006 we only saw each other twice; December 2014 and March 2015, but it is only because I had to take care of my son’s documents and bring him back to Canada. However, this opportunity helped my partner and I to re-kindled our relationship.
My first visit I spent one month but most of it hiding out inside a house; I only went out when I had to take care of the medical or documents for my son. The second visit; to bring my son back to Canada, I was relief that I only had to spend 4 days.
It’s been 12.5 years I really miss him. We’re getting older and no one has ever love or care for me the way he does but there’s a few obstacles that was preventing him from moving here to live and instead wanted me to move back with him.
Obstacles why he don’t want to leave St.V:
1. He loves the sea; this is what I met him doing since we met in 2003. It is the reason he is not here with me years ago. The sea is not just a place where he fish; almost 400lbs a day, to supply for the Kingstown fish market. It is like life for him. He loves the sea so much that even if he’s sick; broke a leg or wearing a neck collar, he still goes to sea. So I didn’t want to pressure him.
2. He cannot live in Canada and not able to work. My partner is a man who is very committed and responsible and believes that every man should work hard and/to support his family. He is dedicated man and father hardworking who loves his self-employed fisherman job and don’t want to give it up knowing that he has to come here and wait until after his sponsorship is completed to be able to work.
3. He build a beautiful home and he has 3 children; which is expected and I loved as much as he loves mines, from my relationship before I met him (2), which he had from two relationships since I live here in Canada.
So you can understand why he prefers to have me move back to live with him. However, since he learn why I can’t moved. I know this decision is difficult for him but he took into consideration that it takes a very patient woman to wait 12.5 for man so he decides to it’s time he be here in Canada with me because he doesn’t want to lose me.
It’s been really difficult living without my partner all these years even harder since I get hit by a car 2+ years ago protecting my daughter from someone who was driving while texting. I’ve been battling depression, anxiety abs PTSD since and having a difficult time letting my almost 18 year old daughter leave the house on her own. I am more depress because I was always very active; working, full time school and living, and this was suppose to be my 3rd year in university. No I feel like I have no purpose. It is even more difficult to get better because having to worry about everything else besides getting better does help; I’m living alone with my two children and have no other help. I really need him here; I really need his love and support. I have to get my life back so I can finish what I’ve started..
This is another reasons he decides to be here with me.
So I called immigration and explain the situation and the explain some steps that we can take for him to be here. The agent said my partner and I will have to cohabit together for one year before I can sponsor him and that I have to write an invitation letter explaining my situation and why I am not able to go live in St. Vincent for one year.
And My partner has to apply for
1. a TRV
2. Temporary Worker permit; because i explain he will not want to come to Canada nor stay here long if he cannot work to support us and his children who he has to leave behind temporarily, and I really need him here.
So I really need you advice on how to write my
1. INVITATION LETTER.
2. And How can my partner explain his situation in his PURPOSE OF TRAVEL LETTER?
I know this is going to be a difficult and huge change for him. Please help with some advice.
And please do not hesitate to ask for clarification for anything that is not precise and please forgive me for writing so much.
Thank you kindly.
