It's fair to assume she's telling the truth on some level to Salah.Yeah, I think we've sorta reached the Gunt event horizon where we need to stop asking what she's lying about. Lying is her default state. Instead, we have to ask what she's telling the truth about. Bear in mind that lies of omission aren't "lies" to her, "changing her mind" isn't the same as lying, and she also does this weird thing where two half-truths equal one truth.
So let's try to piece this together.
He totally wants to be with her in Canada and loves her so he wifes her totally not for papers. She may have mentioned it may take a while to get him there, eventually had no choice but to tell him about her bankruptcy as a combo "why not?" pressing from Salah and the evidence of it in this thread that gets passed around and frequently brought up.
I can see them agreeing to an arrangement such that she stops paying rent in Canada and stops having any actual bills—this is why she got rid of her cats as they're an additional expense (anyone watching them for months would expect payment and supplies). She then is to live with Salah for him to "take care of her" so she can save her money and pay off her debt more quickly. He just may not be aware of how little she actually is making, how much debt she needs to repay, and how long it would take to repay it even if she didn't blow her wad on food and bullshit. All he knows is she agreed to do this, and she definitely was telling the truth about giving up everything to come live with him. She just wasn't so clear about it being impossible for her to pay off her debt and bring him with her to Canada in the next decade.
The Kia still has what, around $10,000 CAD left to pay off? Yeah, she's a minimum payment situation type deal and there's no way that debt will be paid off before Salah is 40.
