Hi PMM and all,
I got my COPR today, but another problem comes. In the letter it says that "You must inform us of any change in your martial status before you land in Canada." I included my common-law partner (one year ago) in my application. In 2013 April, my common-law partner and I got the passport request. As indicated, I informed CIC that our two were getting married in May. So one agent called me, I told him all of my situation (getting married, go back to my home country for one month, etc.). Then he told me to "do nothing before I get married and come back to Canada. Once I come back, I can mail our passports to CPP-O." I did so, but the returned VISA shows we are in "Common-Law". So in this case, do I need to inform CIC again that we got married in May or I just need to go to the border and do all the landing stuff. For your convenience, I list the above complicated timeline as:
Application started: Sept. 2012, Relationship: Common-law (Both she and I are included)
Passport request: April. 2013, Relationship: Common-law
Get married: May, 2013, Relationship: Married (The same person in the application
)
Passport and COPR returned: Aug. 2013
Thank you for your help!
