Suspected Scam

[Bluepanda92 33]

Ok, so my cousin is dating a guy they have had a baby together they both born and live in the UK, the guy has been offered work in Canada starting from September, and he said he will get a house in Canada and then my cousin and her baby can move there after a year or two, my boyfriend lives in America and we will soon be going through the marriage visa process so I know alot about it, but what I find suspicious is that my cousin's boyfriend has been guaranteed a permanent residence by the employer and apparently he has had his visa interview over the phone, I am worried about the well being of my cousin I feel like they are being scammed, even if he does get a job there, is it possible for him to bring his girlfriend and baby over on a fiance visa when he only just moves there in September, how long would it take him to get a permanent residence and how long would it take after his permy residence would it take to be eligible to bring his girlfriend and baby there

I mean:

"Fiancé or Fiancee. The Canadian Government does not permit you to sponsor your fiancé(e), unless you qualify as a conjugal or common-law partner. "

 

I never heard about phone interviews for visas, but who knows - maybe Canada's immigration law is different.

Perhaps being in the British Commonwealth affords this option. It should not be hard to Phone or email the Canadian embassy or consulate to either confirm or disprove this

I agree that there is something not right about it.  I would be suspicious if I were you.

~~Moved to the Canada forum, from K1 P&P - the OP's cousin is not immigrating to the US. Neither of them are in the US or USC.~~

Are they common-law in the UK? 

Sounds like he may have had a job interview but still needs a work visa interview?
