We have been in a long distance relationship for 2 and a half year which resulted with lots of travelling from me to go see him.
My boyfriend is an Italian Citizen, I am a Canadian Citizen. We finally have decided to get married. This Spring I'll be visiting him in Italy and we are planning on getting married but I'm sitting on the fence on that because I would like my family to be present as they are all in Canada.
My boyfriend will be coming in the summer to visit and I would like us to get married then instead so my family can attend my marriage. Can that be done? Can I get married to him while he is in the country w/an ETA permit? He will be staying only a cpl of weeks
Once we get married he is planning on going back because he can't leave his job in Italy yet. I'd like to start the outland spousal sponsorship ASAP but I'm unsure if we can start the application while he is still here and make in an inland spousal application, or does he have to leave the country for me to do that?
Our main goal is for us to be together and him opening a business here in Canada. We don't want to do anything the wrong way and comply w/all the Immigration laws.
Are there any suggestions on how to go by this? Should we get married in Italy or when he comes here while he is visiting, is that even allowed? What's the waiting period for an application to be accepted?
Thank you for reading - Hope to get some responses.
