Hi
I am marrying my girlfriend in Canada and sponsoring her for PR
She is in Canada under a student permit. She applied for an extension before the permit expired in March 2025. She is still waiting for an answer on her extension application. However, it is very likely that it won't be approved due to not maintaining full-time study at school. I understand that she is on implied status
I understand that under the public policy, I can sponsor a spouse for PR even if their status expires at some point. By the time we get a marriage certificate and apply for the application, She will be with no valid status residing with me.
My questions:
1- Does it affect her PR application?
2- Currently, it shows 36 months to process inland. Does she need to apply for a restoration status? Under what basis?
3- Can she renew and get government services, and add her to my medical benefits?
4- Does marrying close to her status expiration and applying after her status updates come in (due to the marriage process time) make the application questionable?
any advice?
