Subject: How to get him here - Conjugal, marrage
 
I am a Canadian citizen now and went back to South Africa to visit March 2010. Met up with a school friend and we have been in close contact since. After first time rejection of his visitor visa we managed to get him here for a 3 week visit in Feb which confirmed that we would like for him to move her.
He would not qualify as skilled; we have not lived together for common law so what are our options? I suspect that even a second visitor’s visa would be difficult because they had doubts about him returning. I have a career and 3 kids so cannot go back there and with visa difficulty he is struggling to come and stay here for any length of time. Visitor’s visa was only issued for 3 months.
What is our options.

option #1 - keep trying for the visitors visa

option #2 - get married and sponsor him.

Thanks for quick response.
My concern with keep trying for visitors visa is that it gets expensive and every rejection reflects bad on my and his record.

Do we get married here or there (does it matter) and to what extent will the validity of the marrage be questioned. We have facebook and email communication for a year and his visit but that is it.

Marlene, nothing about this is going to be cheap.

where you get married does not matter. What matters is gathering sufficient evidence (that does not mean sex videos) to prove that your relationship is real and enduring. A marriage certificate does not prove that. So, start thinking about webcam shots, photos together, plane tickets. Start thinking like a lawyer needing to build evidence to prove a case.
