sponsorship for my wife in colombia

[jmontauk]

Hi, Im new to the forum and hope to find some helpful information regarding some questions i have.

My girlfriend is from Colombia and we hope to get married in january 2012.We were looking at the sponsorship application and alot of the questions really made us scratch our heads.

So i guess what im asking is if anyone has married someone from colombia and how their sponsorship has worked out.My girlfriend gets frustrated easily so any info to relax her would be greatly appreciated.

Search for a user/member called "medellinguy".  You can look at the threads he has posted, he filed an application to sponsor his wife late last year, they are going through the Bogota, Columbia visa office.  I'm sure he'd be happy to share his experiences with you.

I think there is a thread for people going through the Bogota Visa office as well, you can search for that thread too.

Perhaps, to help her relax a bit you can tell her it's a good thing u are looking into the application process and all the information that is required now because it is a long process and now you can take your time on things and revise things since you have time before Jan 2012 when you will be married.
My boyfriend is from Dominican Republic and we are planning on getting married in summer 2012 (hopefully beginning of July 2012) and we have already started looking at the applciation and writing answers for things... It is kind of stressing me out right now because there are a lot of things we're unsure of and a lot of information, etc that we have to obtain, but just ensure her that you have the time to do this slowly and make it a comprehensible explanation of your relationship and that everything will be fine! Then, after your wedding, you can add in the information about the wedding, tie up loose ends in your package and be ready to send it pronto after the wedding.
Good luck! I know we need it as well

Hi,

No problem, make sure you send all the evidence that is going to help you to prove that your relationship is real, pictures very important, marriage certificate, emails, airline tickets, dates of trips, phone bills, if you send money to her the receipts, make sure you fill the application very truthful accurate, pay attention to every detail, make sure you traslate the police and marriage certificate, that was the only thing I traslated and I was fine, do the medicals so you can send them with application togueter and pay the fees.

If you have any information that is going to help to make your case strong definitevely add it, I sent the application through Canada post no problems or delays...and after that just to wait.....very patienly

Let me know if you need anything else....buena suerte...
