Subject: My Russian girlfriend
  Hi all.
I want to consult my chances with the experienced people here.
I am 37 single guy that don´t go to bars anymore and do not know any deasant local girl. I have a girl in Moscow that I know from the web for the last 7 months. We talk on the phone twice a week and exchange emails.
She sounds sweet and humble and quite a good looking.
I want to bring her here, live with her for a while and if everything would be ok, I would marry her.
I willing to pay the ticket, make health insurance and even deposit money in case we will brake up and she will not leave on time.

The problem - she was refused for a visitors visa.
What can I do to bring her.
It a sort of catch 22 where Canada doesn´t have Fiance visas and they not allow here to visit because there is a chance she will stay. BUT I want her to stay.
Would be going to Russia myself to talk to the Embassy will help?
Any other suggestions?
Thanks
Alex

just don´t go for this girl, she just want to come to Canada. I understand she is beautiful and young. But don´t go for this scam. I know that´s why I´m suggesting it.

Why don´t u make a trip to Russia and stay for a while. I´m sure you won´t be refused a visit visa.

If things work out - you can marry her there and then sponsor her to come as your spouse.

you have 1 choice. go there and marry her. come back and sponsor her and be financially responsible for her for 3 years. there is not test drive options with CIC. If they will not issue a visitors visa your options are pretty much limited.

outside chance - conjugal class of sponsorship. same liabilities. Can she come on her own merits as a student, work permit, skilled worker?

Billy gave you the right advice. Besides, if you go there and stay for awhile, you may find out if you are really compatible or is it just sex you need. If it is the latter case, you might as well hook up with a Canadian woman who also visits other countries for pleasure. I think Sharon on this board is into those kind of escapades. Just talk to her, hook up and you don´t even need to go overseas! If you have time and MONEY, go to Russia, live there with the girl and if you still like her enough, marry her and file for spousal visa. Even that might take a year to go through. It is a great pity that there are no fit Canadian wenches for you! Afterall, I sees them all over the damn country. There gotta be just one or two good ones among them. Try harder.

Be smart man be smart, there are many Russian females in Russia who are looking for men especially from developed countries..... Of course she will sound sweet, and of course she could be beautiful. Those ladies apply to some agencies, and look for a man online, they never give a shit to any man living in a poor country, no matter that man could be handsome, smart or nice...They just want to get rid of their own country, whatever the cost is, they study hard and do everything to move to a better country.

Marriage is a serious thing, never marry someone whom you do not know very well, and get on very well... Do you know her family, her background, whether she got married or not ? May be at the time she was writing to you she was sleeping wiht her boyfriend, may be this is their plan , how can you be sure ??

If she is clever enough she will do everything to come over to Canada, she will sound sweet, and show her love and interest in you...


If she is that much sweet and pretty and nice, just brainstorm for a while, what on earth such a girl cannot find a man closer to her ??

If you want to be sure of her love then just tell her that you intend to live in Bulgaria rest of your life, lets see whether she will join you or not ...

Just a personal experience a stupid friend of mine at the age of 40 got married to a lady from Russia, and sorry to say but my friend is an old school friend, honestly not an attractive guy, not very social and damn boring, ( that is why no ladies approached him in Canada) she met a girl online from Russia , spent a lot of bucks, paid for her ticket, got married her and after a year (after learning her rights in Canada ) now she is together with a young guy...

How come you couldnot find a lady in the country or town you are living in until this time, and what makes a young beautiful sexy lady fall in love with you ??

Not only ladies but there are also men from the Middle east or India or from any poor countries, they spend hours online to find a lady from the western world, they do not mind their ages, physical apperance or etc. they just jump on them and do everything until they land in Canada...

Come on man be smart ...

I know about the warnings and the scams. I m not stupid.
But I truly beleave this girl is different.
1. I offered to send her money to help her out - she refused.
2. She always says that she preffer for me to move to Moscow and she quite affraid o move to Canada without knowing English.
3. She is not a pretty as a model - sheis just sweet

I like her very much, butI can´s leave Canada now. I have a good job, I have 10 more months for my citizenship, and I am a CMA student.
Would approaching my MP will help?
Or going their for a vacation?
And if I will marry her on this vacation - is it enough to sponsor her?

And Sharon .... , My email is alxoren@yahoo.com
It would be interesrting to know your habbits from the source ;-)

you MP is a waste of time at this point. call a consultant - pay a little money and have them suggest a strategy that might fly with CIC.

email you - my habit in this situation is to ignore you.
