Hello!
On the form IMM 5533 question 7 in the section 'Supporting Documents for Sponsored Persons' it asks for proof of our relationship. Since we don't have children, I must submit further proof outlined in section e.
1 - Important documents showing we are recognized as eachothers spouse
2 - Documentary evidence of financial support
3 - Other proof that the relationship is recognized by family/friends
4 - Proof of past cohabitation (if not living together, but we used to)
For #1 - My wife (Russian) says that there aren't any documents we can get that will explicitly state 'husband' or 'wife'.
For #2 - There is no financial support, nor any documents. I asked if it is possible to get a joint bank account, and she says no, you can't do joint accounts in Russia.
#3 will not be a problem
#4 doesn't apply to us, since we currently live together. Maybe I could dig up some reservations from Booking.com or AirBnB, but again, there won't be anything explicitly saying 'husband' or 'wife'
Any suggestions/advice on what we can use as proof?
