with csis you can pre arrange a phone call another time. VO calls unexpected and if u dont answer couple times, they might refuse application...am I wrong?
exactly, some kind of application takes place regardless. so if something untruthful was
said back then, it haunts forever. theres no WHITE lie with immigration. They have a really BAD sense of humor.
It has nothing about a bad sense of humour. Immigration documents are legal documents so there should be no lies of any form.
Missed the 2014 but if they mentioned if they were married at the border that would be in her record.
It may be important here whether the ex-boyfriend travelled ALONE to Canada and may have stated whether he was married to the sponsor. If that's the case - and this is literally the only piece of evidence attesting to sponsor being married - it's hard to see how she could be liable for that misstatement.
That said, this isn't exactly a legal determination of liability, I'd hesitate to guess at what level of proof or evidence is required.
Hence the support of a lawyer might really be important here. Presumably if this is the whole story, it may help to counter the point directly, but I do not know.
The other point that's critical here for the OP - the sponsor especially - is that if there's anything else more firm or documented in government files or the application indicating a previous marriage, any inconsistency or omissions in the response could make things worse.
GCMS notes would really help, as responding to unknown info is very difficult and fraught with issues.
Should have noted that if sponsor and the ex travelled together, there could be a supposition (with potentially nasty consequences) that the sponsor was aware the ex represented himself as married at the port of entry.
Details may really matter here.
Same thing as CIA and immigration. CIA is not something you want to have contact with.

Agreed. It could be a serious issue that needs to be dealt with a lawyer. Or it could be something more benign, we just dont know without a gcms report.
What we can know for sure is that Visa Officer has SOMETHING on Applicant that she is using against him and is fishing for more inconsistencies. The fish is on the hook and Visa Officer is reeling in, its now up to applicant to get free before end up in the net.
Maybe in other countries but in Canada and as far as IRCC is concerned the answer is no. In Canada a legal divorce is required before being able to marry again. Separation and divorce are 2 totally different things.
