i am pakistani and i am transgender man i want to claim asylum in canada on visitor visa i have girlfriend here and i want to marry her but in my country we can't marry pakistani and islamic law don't allow to marry trans man to a girl i need to know when i come to canada how can i invite her here or any other solutions for this issue? her parents is forcing her to marry a guy who live in Saudi arab we don't know what to do please guide us what we should do thank you so much. or can we both get asylum if yes how?
 
So the first question is, do you have a TRV now? That will be the first obstacle. If you aren’t married or have been common law, there is no opportunity to include your gf in your claim or sponsor her as your spouse. The only other option would be for her to apply for a TRV and travel to Canada. You can then marry and apply inland.

Thank you so much :) what is TRV? i am going to apply for simple visitor visa for canada in few months is TRV different visa?
 
It’s a Temporary Resident Visa. It allows you to travel to Canada. The visa is given at the point of entry in Canada.

A TRV and a visitor visa are the same thing.

Have you previously traveled to countries requiring visas such as the US or UK? What ties to your home country do you plan to show? These are important factors in getting a TRV approved.
 
can she apply with my bank statement? i have almost $21k in my bank sorry i am new here i don't have any information about visas
 
She will need to prove adequate income to get a TRV. Your income won’t count.

Agreed. And her own ties like employment, property ownership/rental, etc.

Getting a TRV can be very difficult. I would start by trying to see if you are approved. The process can take a few months depending on the individual.
