Hello All,

I am currently in India with stamped visa and a CoPR. I am planning to get married first.

Incase my PR is expiring before i get married, i just want to do a quick trip to Canada to complete landing formalities.

1. Can we give Friend's address for PR card delivery ?
2. What are the risks involved ?

Thanks.
 
If your marital status changes before Landing, you need to inform CIC & add your spouse to your application, submit her docs etc and then get your new Visa + COPR. Also you need to ask CIC to cancel your present PR Visa + COPR.

See the below thread abt this: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/canada-pr-applied-under-cec-and-marital-status-changed-before-landing-t237782.0.html

You can land and apply for PR card to send to your friend. But you can always get a Travel Document from India to come back without a PR Card, if you choose not to ask your friends to send the PR card through Fedex etc. In this case, you need to sponsor your wife through Family Sponsorship.
 
If you get married before you land to become a PR, then CIC is to be notified immediately. I urge you not to land without your spousal application is approved.

Hi Maniac,

I would consider that as the best case in my situation. But the problem is, i am not sure when the marriage would happen. Totally unpredictable.

Hence, my question was,
What is the best alternative in case my Visa expiry is nearing and i am still single. ?

Marriage is my priority actually :-).

My actual question in this post was,

Is it recommend or even ok to give friend's address for PR card. ?

I would like to do a quick trip to Canada to save my PR status.

Yes you can give friends address for PR card.
