Late honeymoon

[dream99]

My spouse and I had our honeymoon months after we got married and only went for 2 nights,3days. Would IO be suspiscious?

ANd we didn't have a formal engagement ceremony but we had dinner's with family and friends.. The dates of those were scattered too.

I think there's no specific length of period for honeymoon for it to be genuine as it would be on a case per case basis, some people dont have time off or budget. Me and hubby only went on a 4days 3 nights honeymoon as i didnt have many time off work what with weddings receptions in 2 diff city eating into it. But we had many mini honeymoons after the wedding, short getaways on long weekends to make up for it. You should prove the marriage is continous and genuine, not only tick all the appropriate boxes in evidence.

No, just explain why. We only had a 2 night "mini-moon" and just explained that we were waiting to take the "honeymoon" later on, after the immigration process. So, I think as long as you explain whatever your reasoning is (preference of several short trips instead of one long one, or whatever), you will have answered any potential questions or concerns for the officer.

I didn't even have a honeymoon yet..
However, I got a letter from VO which waived me an selection interview. It says it expects to finalize my application and issue me a visa upon receipts of all documents.

Don't worry. I get no honeymoon and formal engagement ceremony as you do. I explained to IO that me and my husband are not event-planning type and we just wanted to celebrate our wedding dining out with family and friends.  I attached in my applications all the photos we dined out with family and friends

The IO accepted this and waived me an interview.

I understand what you guys are saying. My spouse and I haven't had our wedding ceremony yet and the reason is because we want to have it in Canada when my spouse receives her PR and everything is settled in our lives. I mean there is absolutely nothing false in the information I am providing in my entire application. BUT... we always want to make sure to inform them the right way to make them KNOW that this is how it is. Because we definitely want this application to go through without any requests for interviews or any delays due to some stupid reason. That's why I try to ask a lot of questions in the smallest details as possible.

Thanks, guys!

We also haven't had one yet - after PR and we're settled in Canada. With 4 kids all these changes happening for them, I wasn't going to take off to the bahamas for a week. We explained that on the form. I'm certain they'll understand.

But you are married and had a courthouse ceremony? If had a courthouse wedding now and you want to have a bigger, community celebration later on, I think it is good idea to explain your plans in the application.  If you are waiting to have a bigger celebration (in your country and/or in the partner's country) because you want to save up money, or until your spouse has PR and can travel freely, or whatever the reasoning is...  Or if you wanted a private ceremony because that is how you envisioned getting married, you just could say that and explain why that type of ceremony was important to you as a couple, and maybe describe how you shared the news with each of your families (if you have).
