I’ve been looking at various threads but haven’t been able to deduce the best approach here.

My AoR is March 1 2019 for FSW Outland.
My meds are passed and I’ve already given my biometrics.

If I get married before I get the PPR, would the whole PR process for both of us be quicker
a. if I wait to inform CIC about my marriage after I get the PPR or
b. if I informed them right away?

Or would both of these approaches take the same amount of time?

Thanks.

If you do not inform IRCC and you get married before landing you will never be allowed to sponsor your spouse
Yes, I’m aware of that.

You need to inform then as soon as you get married.
Could you link to a section of the law that says that? My understanding was that you need to inform them before you land and that’s all.

Hey! it would definitely be faster if you inform them right away. If you wait until you get PPR and they stamp your passport, they will ask you to send it back to cancel your COPR which is a longgg headache. At that point you maybe adding an additional 6 months processing time. If you tell them right away, and your marriage date is in MAY, it may or may not add additional time to your application ( not sure). My AOR date is November 22nd and I got married in April. I informed IRCC a couple of days after and submitted all the documents they asked for in April. I have 15 days left on my progress bar so waiting to see if I go over the 6 months. Hope this helps.

Greetings all. I am getting married on nov 10 next month, however i got my AOR on 12 sep and have MEP/BIL on 1st oct.

My questions are.
1.should i inform IRCC right after my marriage or after PPR, my goal is to go together with her taking the shortest time possible.
2. Will the CRS Score be recalculated after the AOR.
2. Should my future spouse write IELTS and get her ECA done?

Thank you in advance. :)

Didn't you get an answer what you asked for?
It would be great to know more about this topic. If you have already passed this process can you help me?
