Finally finished my Spousal Immigration forms!

I met a woman whom I figured out is my soul mate. She lives in Iran, but because I was born there I can't visit her or I risk having to fulfill my mandatory army requirements that country has. So we decided to meet in Austria, my mothers home country. We married on July 1st during our first ever one month meeting. It was heaven for both of us, but soon the trip had to end due to my work obligations. We both went back to our countries but over the next few months we kept trying to get her a tourist visa to Canada. Having been denied two tourist visa's for her to visit me our only option left was to start the permanent residency application for spouses residing outside of Canada. 
I spent two months putting this gigantic application together. I must of spent the first few weeks just researching on what this process entails and how I am going to organize my application. So I decided to make a short Youtube video showing how I put the application together explaining each section from front to back. I thought if I could help shorten the process in anyway for anyone else it would be a good thing :)

I sent the application off the very same day I made this video, October 26th 2011. It is supposed to take about 13 months to process this application from the Canadian governments Damascus, Syria office. Hopefully I have included enough evidence in the application that they won't even ask for a interview, cause it would be a nightmare if they did. She would have to travel from Iran to Syria just for the interview, and I would never let her go alone so I would have to make the trip as well.

Here's the Video, enjoy:



And here is me and my wife Shima Pahlavan on our wedding day:
