Proving the genuiness of your relationship to immigration officers can be stressful and sometimes bordering on embarrassing. Giving a stranger a look through private eyes into the intimacy of your relationship… it can be the make it or break it aspect of your application. In this blog we’ll look at ways to prove that your relationship is real and not just to get into the beautiful country you want to call home with your significant other.

What is a genuine relationship?

Couple must show that you are in a loving committed relationship and most importantly didn’t enter that relationship solely to obtain permanent resident status in Canada. Immigration officers examine and comb through all of your supporting documents in your application and may call you for an interview. All applicants must take this portion of the application very seriously as officers look very carefully for immigration fraud via phony relationships.
