two Indians holding Canada PR gets married before landing in Canada

[Milan2899]

If a boy and girl holding individual PR to Canada, and if they got married before landing in Canada, then how long it takes to change their status ( from single to married) and obtain Permanent Residence in Canada ?

Both are already PR so not further processing required at CIC front.

Maybe I am misreading but isn’t the OP implying they have not yet landed, so need to change their status from single to married before they land ?

My bad. You are right.

Seems like they both have to notify CIC that they are married but there will be no need to resubmit and wait for the other spouse to go through screening process.

Thanks guys for your response. As per the communication received from Canadian Immigration Department, they have cancelled their confirmation of Permanent Residence to update the marital status, and asked for Immigration Medical examination, and once this is done, they will issue further instructions. I am not sure how long it will take to get new PR.

You should both have valid medicals so this may be a standard reply. Not sure what the wait period would be because normally it is just one spouse that has PR.

Hi,

I am going through a similar situation of updating marital status after CoPR. It would be of immense help if you could let me know :

1. How long did CIC take to reply to your enquiry?
2. How long did they take to reissue new CoPR?
3. Were you asked to submit your passports again?
