Hi Everyone ,
I have a few questions about spousal sponsorship process, i hope to receive some answers from this forum :

1) Me and my fiancee are planning to get married in 2 months time , The wedding is a simple beach wedding with just 4 of us participating (my family, me ,her) Its a destination wedding at Seychelles. Her parents would not participate as they disapprove of this marriage , We are both from different religions , hence the disapproval. our relatives also will not be informed as we will conduct a reception a year after the marriage.

2) Me and my fiancee have been together for the past 10 years , I can provide supporting documents for proof of relationship , Whats app chats , joint bank accounts , hotel bills, pictures during the timeline, letter from our mutual friends and my family etc , After marriage we would not like to disclose our relation ship on social media , will that raise a red flag?

3) I have already applied for a TRV before , in order to follow the inland sponsor ship process, I was denied entry due to lack of travel history .

Can sm1 help me on this , Tough times are ahead, I would just like to know if my spousal sponsorship process would go through.

Thanks

If you have a 10 year relationship history including many in person visits you should have no problem getting approved as an outland sponsorship. If you explain why family is not at the wedding and the reason makes sense it is fine. Unfortunately not an uncommon scenario.

Yes, with that amount of relationship history you won't have an issue. You don't have to disclose anything on social media.

Thank you for the reply :), I was getting very tensed , the wait has been very tiring . We have traveled to each other every year since 2013 , until then we did our graduation together at the same college (2009-2013) .
I have got one more query is it required to submit educational certificates for out land spousal sponsorship?

No requirement for education documents.

Same here! We are getting married next year after 8 yrs of LDR. We belong to different faiths ( in reality we follow none) and different countries and our country of residency are also different from citizenship. We hold Indian and Iranian citizenships, where is everybody else from? May be we can support each other on this forum.
Please keep us posted about the process..
Best Wishes!

I'm not sure why people keep bringing up religion when it comes to immigration. No where on any of the forms are you asked to disclose your religion. In Canada it is highly illegal for the government to ask any such questions, Its irrelevant to any services the government provides. At MOST , its a minor foot note to explain why a religious wedding may not have been attended by one side of a family who foolishly chooses to let religion get in the way of celebrating a family members union.

This, unfortunately, is not correct. For immigration application purposes, IRCC can, and will, if required, ask absolutely anything about you that they deem relevant. This includes age, religion, financial status, sexuality, political alignment etc. There are no "no-go" areas in a "relationship interview".
