Inland sponsor spouse application, Need Advice.

Hello everyone, for all the specials here,
We're really young couple (very earlier 20s) and we will marry soon in Canada, my girlfriend is a Canadian citizen and I'm a currently student (but I had a working permit as well so I have a record of income)
but the questions are followed.

1. My future wife is a still student and she doesn't work officially cause she is working under the cash so it is not able to record on taxation or things like that so it will record 0 income, it will have a problem with that?

2. I want to know what the financial social assistance means because she gets a bursary now and I assume that it is not a problem with that, but I wanna know exactly what it is.

3. And also, she doesn't want her parents know about the marriage, we have been living together around 1 year now and she got a tiny financial support from her mom (around $200 per month), because her family has had a big problem now and she doesn't want them to get shocked, being disagreed because of her disease, things like that.
Since we have an official paper and everything with that, without telling their parents, can it be a reason for refusal? (And I want to have a wedding ceremony for that, but she doesn't want that much, so if we just marry on paper, will it be a problem as well?)

I need an advise for that, and hope you guys are being good all the day.
Late night,

It might be an issue if she has no way to prove her income.

Social assistance is welfare.

The application asks if the parents are aware of the relationship. If one side is not aware or doesn't approve, then it can raise a few eyebrows. You need to address that in your application, explaining why you are not telling the parents. If it's common for people in your culture to have a civil ceremony without a big reception, then it's fine. But if your culture usually has a huge wedding with all the family and friends present, then the VO might ask why you are going against your culture.
