The O/P already stated that the marriage will be a marriage of convenience, otherwise In layman’s terms , a sham.
And it is wrong to use getting married to stay in the country , when the only reason they are getting hitched is for one to stay in the country. It’s misrepresentation, lying , gaming the system whatever you want to call it. It’s WRONG
Just because the person had a rejected asylum claim , doesn’t give them the right to game the system .
Oh yeah. You are right by all definitions but, we are here to advise ourselves and leave the person with all opportunities and the consequences attached. It is wrong does not mean it can’t be explored.
People, the the first instance make their claims on falsehood but then, lots still scaled through and get accepted.
That’s my point. Lots of people got married so that they will be allowed to stay in Canada...it it WRONG but many still get accepted.
Coming through illegal land routes are WRONG but people do and still get accepted and most of them are doing fine and even better than lots.
In as much that I don’t want to encourage what’s wrong, I just want to put the cards on the table and let people make their choices. People will do what they have to do anyways, especially when they are desperate.
