Hi there. I am writing to you today, hoping I may get a piece of advice. I will omit some details, because I feel like they are unnecessary.
Basically I overstayed in Canada for a short period of time and was subjected to exclusion (I left on required date).
I have a spouse of 4 years (dated 4 years, married recently). Now we are apart, because she is in Canada and I am at my home country.
However, we hired a lawyer and things are moving along as far as my sponsorship goes (I cant wait to be with my spouse).
Nevertheless, I read up online about the process itself and I gotta admit we had alot of hiccups so far (just financially and what not-quality of life, where I am at is very low and she is only one working), but it seems like we are 100% proof since we are genuine and we have a lot of proof. And by a lot I mean EVERYTHING. Some couples we knew, who went through this and got approved didnt have nearly as much proof. We now our relationship will be scrutinized based on my exclusion order. She doesnt seem to be concerned about it, but I am. As a man, I am very stressed out. I have to admit for years I spend living in Canada (legally and a short period, ilegally) I have totally lost the connection with home and have my everything in Canada now (my spouse,my friends and my belongings). So I can't imagine spending my time separate from environment I am used to, the comfort zone. Another issue is, that both me and my spouse feel like living in my home land is not an option. Its a semi hostile environment, where I would be hard pressed to find a job (average salary of 213$ PER CITIZEN) and she would not be able to find one (which would essentially leave us starving to death).
I know this all likely sounds like ridiculous fears and I likely dont have anything to worry about. I know we are genuine and we have a ton of proof, but its the "human factor" that bugs me. The fact that my relationship will be decided by some random officer, who can reject and if not cross over my dreams and wishes or reconnecting with my spouse, then at least deffer our reconnection scares the shit out of me. I gotta admit I never was afraid of anything and this is one of these things, that I cant get out of my mind. I wonder if you guys go through the same. And if you think my fears are based. I know there are officers out there, who are corrupt and also those, who do above their legal rights, because they are simply on power trip.
Please share your story or an advice of how to deal with this stress, we havent submitted paperwork in yet and its already eating away at me.
Thank you for reading my post.
Regards and best wishes to all of you.
