We have a great relationship and I'm thinking about marrying her so that we can eventually move back to Canada (with spouse sponsorship program), so I'm curious about the process I should take. She is an Indonesian domestic worker who has been in Singapore for a few years.
We can't marry in Canada as she don't have much travel history and it is difficult to get her a visitor visa for the moment and we can't marry in Indonesia as we are of different religion (and not interested in converting). So Singapore seems the obvious choice and she agrees. As I understand it, we could do a ROM wedding over here and she could then have a LTVP and eventually a letter of consent if she wants to work? I have a 7.5k salary, so that would be enough for me to have a dependant right? Anything else I should know or any more advice on how to proceed? Can she just quit her job to come live with me once we marry?
Thanks!

Does she not live with you now ?
If she's planning on Marriage, followed by LTVP, LOC, take a step back. Take a deep breath and be ready to be disappointed.
Even if get lucky with LTVP, LOC is next to impossible.
Most likely, post marriage, she and you may have to move to Canada, for good !

From past knowledge, though not cast in stone, WP marrying "Anybody" gets nothing.
A guy I know on EP P1 married a DH, and all his LTVP applications were rejected. And on her second visa run she was banned for 3 years from Singapore.
Though there is no note anywhere in MOM site about asking permission ... that was the case.
And so were few more of his friends.
Any amount of clarification from ICA returned deafening silence !
