Hello,
Not sure if this is the right forum to post this or not, but I will post it here anyways since I am new to the forum and I am looking for help.
I won't really go into all the details, but here is a little bit, I have lived in Canada all my life, I was born here and up until about two years ago never really left. However in September 2010, my family and I decided to move down to Belize, Central America in hopes that my parents could retire down there. As I was not really doing anything at the time, didn't have a job, just finished getting my G.E.D., was planning on going to collage but nothing was set in stone yet. So I decided to go with my parents to try out living in another country for a while and maybe see if I could meet someone while I was down there.
It just so happens that I did meet someone and it started getting real serious, when myself and my family found out that we had to move back to Canada for a number of reasons. But I was not planning on leaving without my new girlfriend and well after some long talks with each other and my folks, I actually asked her to marry me, thinking that with her being married to me that she would not have any issues getting into Canada and living with me. I didn't just do this because of that, I actually did want to marry her, because I love being around her and love her company and she made being in a different country not as scary or missunderstanding as it can be most of the time.
Myself and my parents thought that because she was married to me, that she would not require to have a visa just to come and visit Canada for a little while, as this was sort of all done in a rush because we had to get back quickly. So we did not really look into all of it correctly and well a few days before we where set to fly back to Canada. My mum called the Canadian Embassy in Guatemala and asked if my new wife would need a travel visa just to come and visit for a few weeks or months and well sadly we where told yes. So I had to sadly leave my new wife in Belize, while I traveled back to Canada.
So basically I am just wondering if anyone on this forum can help explain to me if this is true and why it is true, because I have spent countless hours on the internet looking for the reasoning and have not found any. Any help would be very very greatful.
Thank you
Ahuch
