Subject: sponsor my hubby from india
  hi all,

i have to sponsor my hubby from india in this week .have couple of question:

I went to india in jan 2005 and got married on Feb 2005 but we didn´t have angagment ceremony or reception but we have marriage ceremony as per hidusiam rules in temple in present of around 30 to 40 ppl.

Because my parents wasn´t agree with this marriage so i get married in private. We have taken pictures of our small marriage ceremony and we went for honeymoon for one day and took some pictures there tooo.

But my family don´t know yet that i got married and now i m in canada and i have to sponsor him

question 1:my hubby don´t know english much so i can put his own lanlaguge for interview or not.

Question 2 : right now i m living my sister in law so i don´t want any of corrosopodence documents come to my place so i want give me living address as same i m living but if i give mailing address of my friend it is going to be problem or not.

Thanks in advance.

did u guys get court-married? if no, then u have to get legally married to ur husband apart frm marrying according to traditions!! a visa cannot be granted until u are married by law..
though having lavish ceremonies do help ur case a bit, but its nothing of prime importance! the main consideration is that u should have married fr love; and that seems to be ur case. gather whatever proof u have of ur marriage, including the pictures, marriage certificate( court-marriage certificate), other proof of ur contact (if u had any contact with ur spouse before marriage) etc. get whatever proof u can..
If ur husband does not know english, put the language of interview as English! if his interview comes, he will be interviewed in his native language.... in case of spouses, there is no obligation that one should know either of canada´s official languages.
on the other question of urs, YES, u can give ur sister´s address, provided u have an access to it! i mean all the correspondence would be adressed to that address then and u should be able to get those letters frm ur sister´s house..
hope this helps
cheers

Thx Amy for your kind reply,

Where we get married in temple as tradition same temple trust also proccess court marriage paper, me and my hubby signed that marriage documents.
So we did resigster in court and court issue a marriage certificate i have that original copy of that.


Actually i don´t want to have any corospondence letters come to my sister´s place .that why in my application form for sponsorship want to put my residence address as my sister´s place because i live there and i like to put my best friend address for mailing.so all letters go to my friends place.Is it possible or it´s going to suspicious for immigration officer.

I think you know that in IMM 1344 A application form have option to provide mailing address if diffrent then resident address.

Thanks for your kind reply

be very careful. are you sure you are not being used as a ticket into Canada by this fellow? CIC is going to ask the same question. Your circumstances are not the most compelling.

I would also investigate whether you meet the criteria to sponsor your partner.

dear immihelp... I am sure this man says you are the one for him. I do not know how old you... but please proceed with this situation very carefully. In reality, after 3 months you do not know this man. He might tell you very wonderful things and make you feel loved and beautiful, but there is something to think about. This man would normally have to qualify and wait up to 5 years for Canadian immigration. I am afraid he might be seeing you as a chance to get to Canada the easy way.

If you sponsor him, you are financially responsible for his care for 3 years. If he leaves you... you are still responsible. How will you support yourselves. You are young, you are new in the country... he does not speak any english...what will he do for work??? You are inviting yourself a very big problem and already you say your family will not be happy with what you have done.

Please, please, please... be careful.

I´m with Sharon on this one. Girl you don´t know what you are in for! First of all, I have strong doubts that this guy has no bad intentions. Second of all, my husband arrived here from India a month ago. Luckily I have a good job and can support the both of us until he gets on his feet. We have a nice house to live in and food on the table. In other words, with God´s grace, we are not struggling financially. As well, we have tremendous family support from both sides and all of my friends and family have accepted and embraced him as my husband. My husband speaks, reads and writes English as he was educated until university. Not only that, but he lived in the UK for several years (which is where we met). I tell you all of this because, you know what? He still finds it damn difficult and depressing to be here with no family on his side and not knowing anybody. I´m sure the thought has crossed his mind several times that he made a mistake. Now imagine if things weren´t so good with us in that we didn´t have family support and we didn´t have a good income coming in...

Think about it my friend. Think long and hard before you decide to sponsor him. If you think that your family accepting him will be hell, him settling in with no English skills, no money, no job - will be even worse!!!!

Thx Sharon and kavita,

he study up to diploma enggg. in electrical .My means to say that he can´t speak english well but he can read and write english well and i m sure he will be learn soon he come here .he is aducated person.

One thing is that we came from same cast and relligious and we did marriage because we both happy to be with each other.
and We both love each other more then everything so there is no way that he or i betaryed anyone there is not single doubt about it. And i know for sure my family going to except this because he is good looking ,same cast ,hard working and nice person.But i don´t want to disclose right now because may be some one don´t like in my family they oppose and i have suffer for while without him.

And as speak of financial situation i have enough money to survive and he is also bring some money with him .So there is no finacial problem.

And last thing he has his own business in india and very setteled business actucally and he is earning well money and living nice life over there but i force him to come to canada.

please, please be careful. you must also anticipate that CIC is going to have a very hard time with your application. This is not going to be a straight forward situation. If we as forum participants are nervous... can you imagine what immigration will be thinking.

Sharon and Kavita,

Well girls what did the girl ask... she is asking help on the process and not on marriage counseling.

I mean Sharon; even your dude can´t speak a word of English. You mentioned - I mean here at least both are so same community and language speaking background whereas you can´t even communicate with him. Yours has a stronger case for investigation on that point!!!

I can´t understand why no one can see other happy in what they decide. She seems a grown up girl and Canadian law gives her the right to choose whom she marries. If she did make a mistake; well let her learn it is her business. Why are you all pouncing on her to think negative?

And Kavita, her (husband) is not the first one who is coming to US or Canada without the command over language. There are several who came to the (at least) the US without knowing English and have done very well. It is the attitude and not the aptitude that carries you to another country to succeed. What a stereotypical attitude ? if you don?t know English you are poor? I?m sorry to say but the 200 years of colonial rule over India has surpassed even after independence.

Sorry for forthcoming on this issue but please all have a right to privilege of immigration and life in this prosperous country. Each individual has a right to fair assessment!!

Chill out ladies and please help if you can in what is asked!!

Just to add....

There are several dudes who migrated with excellent command of English and are struggling. What is the typical attitude of English speaking "Babu" from India. I can only do desk job... Will a well speaking Indian ever go work at McDonalds (if he had to??).

Several complaining about how good their life was in India.... a person who has desire to make big will do anywhere irrespective of knowledge of English.
