Hello,

backstory: I am getting married next month.

May I please ask what are some ways I can bring my spouse to Canada. I have a PR here.

1) Applying PR for her out-land will take 6 months

2) I would like to bring her back to Canada with me after marriage.

3) People mentioned visitor visa's are mostly rejected.

4) Can I apply a dependent visa like in USA? is there something that kind for us canadians here?

Please help me find a better way and faster way. Thank you everyone.

There is no dependent visa.

Try applying for a visitor visa first (not all are refused). If it's approved, she can come here and you can file to sponsor her either outland or inland. If the TRV is refused, you'll have to apply to sponsor her outland while you're in Canada and she waits in her home country.

Thank you, is there any other way I can bring her apart from this?

If she can get a full time job and an approved LMIA - then she can apply for a closed work permit. If she's accepted into a full time school program - she could try to apply for a study permit. However it's too late at this point to get a study permit for September. The earliest possible would be January.
