If my future wife applies for higher education in Canada and successfully obtains a visa, can I add myself as her dependent immediately after we get married and join her in Canada, allowing me to work there?

Thank you!

SOWP isn’t guaranteed for the spouse of an international student.

If you get married immediately after she gets her permit it’s a red flag .
Why would getting that permit be a reason to get married ? If it’s a legitimate relationship, getting a permit should have no bearing on whether or not you’ll get hitched

Thank you for the reply. Actually she just got graduated and is planning to marry after a year. Meanwhile, We are together looking for a better country to migrate. Thank you.
