I have become a PR on April 2014 and have a fiance working in Dubai, UAE.

What would be the easiest and fastest way to get him here?

He does not have a university degree and does not have the skills for the federal skills worker visa.

I am thinking going the student route would be the easiest and fastest but would CIC have an issue with me financing his studies here?

How can we prevent CIC from thinking our relationship is fraudulent...since the majority of our relationship is long-distance?

If he comes in as a visitor and we get married--can I sponsor him then?

Can he work while the papers are being processed?

Thank you for taking the time to read my questions and answering them.

Hello MF,

Thank you for sharing your situation and questions with us.

As you stated, you can apply for him to come as a visitor, however, there are no guarantees that his visa will be accepted.

You mentioned that if he arrives with as a visitor, you have intentions of getting married. In terms of sponsoring from within Canada, you can find some information in our Settlement.Org How do I sponsor a spouse, common-law partner or dependent child from inside Canada? article.

We suggest that you may want to contact the Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) Call Centre directly for some additional information related to your situation.

I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions and if there is any follow up to your question/situation.
