I am currently residing and working in GTA area Ontario. I am under PGWP and in the process of applying for PR. I have 2 years of work experience here under NOC A Category.

During this time, i feel in love with a girl (Canadian Citizen) and planning to legally get married (prenup, marriage license, officiant and marriage) in a couple of months. Will this complicate PR process ? and do i have to disclose it after marriage in my PR application ?

I dont want to apply under spouse sponsorship, as i find that cumbersome to gather all the necessary documents.

Please help, and let me know your thoughts on this issue.

It won't complicate matters as she is Canadian, but you do need to disclose it to IRCC when you are officially married. They may ask you for a marriage certificate, which in Ontario takes quite some time, so request it be processed on an urgent basis.
