Hello everyone,
My wife and I have been together since April 2016, have lived together since October 2016, got married in May 2017 (she was granted a UK visa at the end of May 2017 after a successful application for a spousal visa) and are now in the process of applying for me to get PR through the family class sponsorship to move to Canada.
We have a lot of evidence to support our relationship which includes many trips abroad together, visits to each other's families etc. The only issue that is worrying us about our application is that our parents did not attend our wedding. The reason for this is that my wife's mother lives in the Caribbean, her father lives in Canada, and her friends and family are split between the 2. Due to the cost and logistics of getting everyone to the UK and the fact that marriage was something we wanted to do for us without any great expense, we did it with only my brother and close friend present. In fairness to my wife's family and to avoid any potential upset, my mother who lives here in the UK did not attend.
Does anyone have any input on whether this is going to hinder our application?
