Hello
I need some advice regarding my PR case.
I applied for Skilled class immigration last year. In July 2010, I sent my medical report and RPRF. Roughly four months time was given till PPR (means till mid November). My visa office is London.
Still I am waiting for it. My question is related to my marriage. I need to plan it so that my application goes smoothly.

If I get married between


A. Now and PPR and am able to update my status before PPR comes. In this case my wife's processing will be done with my PR. Further delay of few months is expected. Please confirm if my understanding is correct.

B. Before PPR but while updating my status (collecting and sending docs to CIC), PPR comes. In this case what are my options. I have to update my status immediately with CIC as its a clear instruction from them. Will they ask me to send all documents so that my wife's processing can be done with mine Or will they let me do the stamping+landing and then ask me to sponsor her from Canada on Spouse Visa. Can it complicate my case in any sense?
Lets say they process my wife's PR with mine (which is most likely), Will this case be processed faster than scenario A, as my PPR has already arrived. I understand that if my medical expires, Ive to retake it. I applied in the IT manager occupation which has been taken out from the occupation list. Is it wise to delay my smooth PR process by getting married and adding my wife's case after the PPR?

C. After PPR and Stamping. In this case I can only sponsor her on spouse visa while being in Canada. Please confirm if my understanding is correct.

Is there any possibility which I am missing or havn't thought about.
Your urgent response is awaited.
Thanks in Advance

You are correct. If you are not in haste to land or not under any pressure, you are better off adding your wife now and let both applications be approved provided you have adequate funds for two. If noy, you can go and land, then sponsor her.
 
I'm in a situation similar to ADBoy's .. I think I might get married sooner than planned we originally wanted to do it in April '11, but maybe, we can do this in January if it doesn't arrive until mid December.. so we both wait for the PR together.. the thing is.. I'm living in Toronto and she's living in our home country.. I think we should get married there first.. but I'm not sure.. doesn't anyone know if by getting married in Toronto's city hall, I can include her on my PR process?
 
dude.. she would come here on a visitor's visa, as usual, and we'd get married on the city hall..
i just don't know whether we'd need to get married on our home country first..
