If someone gets married after becoming a Permanent Resident of Canada, can their spouse come with them to Canada on Canadian visitor visa

[bhawuk]

I became permanent resident of Canada last year.
I am planning to get married next month in my country of birth, India.
My fiancé is also from India and she had already applied for Canadian visitor visa couple of years back and her visitor visa is still valid.
I have few questions :
1. I want to know if she can come with me to Canada after marriage and stay in Canada for up to 6 months, while I apply for PR sponsorship for her
2. are there any new/existing rules which prevent me from going ahead with my plan described above
3. Is there a provision where she can stay with me till her inland sponsorship application (processing time is 1 year acc to CIC) gets processed or should I go for outland sponsorship instead
4. Irrespective of the method I choose for spousal sponsorship(inland/outland), is there a way my wife can stay with me in Canada till her application gets processed

I went through various sections on CIC website but couldn't find anything concrete relevant to my situation.
If anyone has had similar experiences, please share
Any pointers on my queries will be greatly helpful

Hoping to hear from the Canadavisa community soon

1. Yes - she can come to Canada. She can stay longer than six months once you have submitted an inland sponsorship application.
2. No new rules.
3. Yes, she can remain in Canada with an inland application + OWP until a decision is made in the application.
