Hi, I am coming to Vancouver for Post Grad degree, work and PR after.
I graduated from UC Irvine, US with BA- Economics. Have 3.5 years of working experience -1.5 in US ( tax, customer service, property management) and 2 in Vietnam( logistics+sales). I had my student permit+visa to come to Canada and will be in Vancouver this winter for post grad in Marketing. My GF is still in Vietnam.

Someone from Vancouver told me I should get married before I go because it would be easier to get my GF-soon to be wife- to Canada with me and when I get PR, both of us can get PR.

However, couple more people from Canada- Calgary- told me a different story, they told me that I should get PR first because it is easier for 1 person to get PR than a couple to get PR. I am very confused right now and need your advice. ;D

Please let me know what you guys think?


Thank you and best regards,

P/S: What is the best+fastest way to get PR in BC Vancouver? I am still Vietnam citizen

Have a great week y'all.

Hi,

I think the best thing is to go to Canada and complete your study without getting married. After you studies is completed you can get married and apply for PGWP i.e. open work permit for both you and your wife. Both can work and after 1 year of work you can get an easy PR. Since both of you have been in Canada atleast for an year.

Hope it helps.
Good Luck!
