has anyone done this?

I believe this is what happened to me... I wrote a letter authorizing my gf to act on my behalf... and in the eyes of the Colombian gov't, at least, we are seen as married. However, I am a little concerned if Canadian immigration will see this as valid... so when we go to the notary next week, I will use that date instead of the Sept date... as I think Canadian immigration will recognize this as the actual date of marriage.

Canada immigration in addition to loads of documents when you apply for a PR visa for your wife...will also ask for wedding photo,s,honeymoon photo,s...photo,s with family...photo,s of time spent together,reciets ...emails...phone records for calls back and forth...and anything else that helps prove the relationship is genuine.
If you have never met in person it might be difficult to prove.
And even if you have and only spent a few weeks together it still might be hard to convince them its not a marraige of convienience.
Im sure the wedding would be legal...but immigration would probably look at it as a big lack of commitment if you are,nt even present for your own wedding...(and now her ex novio can kiss the bride)...just kidding
Anyhow...best of luck
