***KINGSTON, JAMAICA **New Application**(as of Dec 7, 2016)***

[Flyingfast]

Wow...just wow is all I can say. I’ve been married before in 2011 also to a Jamaican and after filing for him and bringing him here he turned out the same way. Within 6 months he was already back to Jamaica twice without me and told me we would never go together because he was going to visit family not for a vacation? What lol. After 9 months of being here I was so fed up I packed his crap and locked him out. He had someone pick him up and he never lived here again. Over the 7 years we were married he has had collections after him, defaulted on a car loan for a BMW that his cousin made the mistake of co-signing for him because I wouldn’t do it. Got convicted of a drunk driving and eventually even his cousin kicked him out. He refused to pay any bills saying if I paid them before why does he have to pay them now? Really? Years later a good friend of his told me he actually had a child in Jamaica that I knew nothing about. He says before the marriage but the friend says after. Who knows. Eventually I filed for divorce and within 3 months of it being finalized I married my 2nd husband who is also Jamaican. Not everyone is a good person but no way was I gonna let my 1st husband turn me into a person who can’t trust and have love in my life. My 2nd husband and I are now together for almost 5 years and married almost 2 years and I couldn’t be happier. Funniest part is I still hear from the first one periodically even though he knows I’m remarried. Still after 9 years of him being in Canada he still gets himself into trouble...oh well not my problem any longer.

Did you have to sponsor your second husband? If so was it more difficult the second time?

What do you mean did them dirty? Do you mean they abandon there spouses once in Canada?

They used them. All of them within weeks of being in Canada had other women, a few of the husbands had kids after they got married with other girls. One was able to send him back to Jamaica for abuse. In my opinion not worth the trouble. Mine was with his "ex" the whole time while I was up here working two jobs to pay to go and visit and send money for the family. Its crazy, honestly worst thing I've ever done.

No red flags? or was all his friends and family in on the deceit? I find it hard to understand you couldn't see something was up? Or he was a fantastic con artist?

Of course there were red flags, but when an entire family is telling you its not what is seems and go out of their way to make you feel welcomed you ignore it. I won't post all the stuff that has happened to me and the people I met but if you see any red flags, just know they will go to any extent to make you think its nothing. Every red flag turned out to be something.

Has anyone who sponsored their spouse from JA gone through the appeal process? We had our interview at KVO on June 14th and were denied 48 hours later. We are expecting our first child in October so this wasn't the news we were hoping for.

Hello everyone

I haven't been on the thread since my husband landed last June but I want to tell you all to keep the faith... and don't be discouraged. I've read some sad stories on here about spouses changing after arriving in Canada. Thanks to God that has not been my circumstance and it hopefully it won't be yours either! Stay positive!

It's not impossible but I hear it's very hard to get. If you can go to Jamaica and visit I'd recommend that! Better than possibly wasting money on the visa application.

Finally signs of life in our application. W applied in July 2022 and my wife received Biometric request yesterday and I got the AOR and Sponsorship approval today. I am expecting the Medical request any day now. Does anyone have an Idea on what the doctor's charge for the medical appointment in JM?

Thanks

Hi all. Hope to get some support. Applied online for outland Jamaica to Canada. Up till now we have not heard anything no unique case number or any sort of email. I have been trying to call immigration canada to get a status update. note*husband has failed interview a few years ago due t0 immi thinking our relationship is not genuine. we have a 10 year old daughter together and have been married since 2013.

Sorry To hear but honestly not the least bit surprised. July was our 1 year mark of application. We interviewed. And waited 1.5 months with no word. We had to have my mp contact them. They said they wanted more info. Meanwhile the notes we ordered indicated my husband scored zeros on all categories of family education career and so so on. We gave up and pulled our application and got half our money back. Ill be moving south and Canada is losing a citizen. Canadian immigration is broken. I feel very sorry for everyone having to deal with them. Best wishes.
