One more question, thanks to those that have responded in the past!
My brother is marying a girl in Guatemala at the end of this year, he is Canadian Citizen (born in Guatemala) both are divorced, she came to Canada for 6 months with a tourist visa, they lived together during this time, she was a childhood friend and they wanted to see if their relationship would work. She wanted to stay for another year, but got told her son needed a student visa which they needed to get outside Canada.
She left to go get this student visa for her son and she would need a temporary resident visa. She applied twice and got denied twice on the grounds that she could not convince the Visa office that her intentions were to just come to have her kid study, they asked her what her relationship was with my brother and she just said friends.
Now that her visa got denied twice, they decided that yes in fact they wanted to be together so my brother is going there to marry her so he can then sponsor her and her son.
I asked here before if having the visa denied twice would impact her application and was told no, but now that I know the reasons that she was told would they believe them that they do really want to be together? they do have lots of proofs of being together and having contact for the last 2 years over phone/email, but because she said she had no relationship with him and all of a sudden now he is marrying her would this send any red flags?
