Hi Guys,

This is the situation, my brother applied through Canadian experience class and he got the invite, he submitted all the supporting documents within the given timeline and now his wedding got finished after the submission of his documents. So at this point, he has his marriage certificate, and the PR is still in process of making a decision.

We need answer to the following,

*Can he add the spouse info notifying the change to CIC?

*Will his points be re-calculated?

*Does this process take extra more 6 months to make a decision than the usual?

I appreciate your help and time

Yes, he has to update CIC immediately.
His points will most likely change.
Nobody can say how this will affect his application timeline.

Thanks for the info

My brother got married and informed CIC about his wedding, He is waiting for the further details from cic to upload his wife's document, but can he still bring his wife with him as she has applied for visitor visa and got visa for 10 years (Before wedding)
Will this be a conflict to his profile after adding her or while traveling to Canada

Others can comment as well but as he is married now he needs to wait for his application to reflect that he is married. If he gets a COPR before his marriage has been reflected in the application he must not use that to land given that would imply being single and he cannot now land as single

Hi, he is just waiting for update from cic to upload his wife documents meanwhile he is leaving to canada in next three days (Post study work permit) Can he take his wife in visitor visa while it is in processing. As the visa was taken before wedding, will that not lead to any conflict of his application processing

*Can he add the spouse info notifying the change to CIC?
The spouse MUST be added.

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/publications-manuals/operational-bulletins-manuals/permanent-residence/express-entry/assessing-electronic-application-on-section-a11-2.html

*Will his points be re-calculated?

"If, however, an applicant marries after they submit their e-APR, then informs IRCC of the marriage, the marriage cannot be taken into account as part of the section A11.2 assessment. However, the change in circumstance may affect whether the applicant still meets the program requirements. See below for details."

In other words - no, his points will not be recalculated, as long as the marriage took place AFTER he submitted his eAPR.


*Does this process take extra more 6 months to make a decision than the usual?

No, not usually, but that depends on the spouse´s background. 2 months additional would probably be about the norm.

Hi, Thanks for your clear response @jes_ON

Currently, he is just waiting for an update from cic to upload his wife documents meanwhile he is leaving to Canada in next three days (Post study work permit) Can he take his wife in visitor visa while it is in processing (After he leaves, she will submit the documents from India as a dependent to my bro's application while in progress and then come in visitor visa with a return ticket during the process). As the visa was taken before wedding, will that lead to any conflict of his application processing.
