I thought I would ask the community here before researching on the government sites of any Canadians that has experienced visiting Canada together with their Thai significant other? How was the visa application process, and were there any difficulties such as showing proof of funds? Any advice would be appreciated. We plan to visit my parents in Toronto before getting married back in Thailand.
