Hi Guys,

I am getting married after AOR. I got my AOR on 23 November and MEP on 12 December. I am getting married next week and I have few queries and need your valuable help here.

1) How and when can I inform CIC about my marriage?
2) Is there any documentation i have to do before the marriage?
3) what documents my spouse need in addition to PCC, medical and marriage certificate (I am not claiming any points for his education and experience)
4) When should my spouse get his PCC and medical done?
5) I (Primary applicant) and my spouse is on open work permit in canada, Does it impact us anyway?

I would highly appreciate your help in advance!

Regards

Hi,

This wait is normal. I did the same thing (Webform + email) and they sent a Request letter to me requesting all the documents from spouse through CIC website after 11 days. I heard that they can last up to 1 month to answer it, specially if you are in the beginning of the process after AOR.

Hi Guys,

I am getting married after AOR. I got my AOR on 23 November and MEP on 12 December. I am getting married next week and I have few queries and need your valuable help here.

1) How and when can I inform CIC about my marriage? The early the better, I have informed in the same day of the marriage through webform and email to the responsible office. They answered to me after 11 days requesting documents directly via IRCC website.
2) Is there any documentation i have to do before the marriage? No, but you can start to prepare the Spouse birth certificate translation, the relationship photos and the documents related to proof of relationship (more details in the next question).
3) What documents my spouse need in addition to PCC, medical and marriage certificate (I am not claiming any points for his education and experience). It depends on each case, in my case they requested 4 different forms, birth certificate + translation, passport, relationship photos, proof of relationship (such as copy of bills or bank statements, etc) and a specific Relationship Assessment Questionnaire that they sent.
4) When should my spouse get his PCC and medical done? Only after they send you the Request letter.
5) I (Primary applicant) and my spouse is on open work permit in canada, Does it impact us anyway? I don't know, but I don't think it would affect anything.

I would highly appreciate your help in advance!

Regards

Hello Guys,

I’ve received AOR (Express entry FSW) on 22nd Feb 2019. Got married on 11th May 2019. I’ve requested to add spouse immediately after marriage and they’ve responded after month and a half requesting documents for spouse. I’ve submitted all documents and got confirmation of receipt for spousal documents on 7/24/2019. After that I haven’t heard anything from them. I’ve exceeded 20 days from the 6 months usual timeline. If anybody with similar situation, just wanted to know how long it usually takes till someone get fingerprints request for spouse followed by PPR?

Thanks.

Hi
I have the same aor, had you receive your ppr??

HI all,

Can we provide all the forms except the PCC and Medical for adding spouse after AOR by raising a Webform?

"Even before the CIC requests for ADR?"

Any response will be appreciated.!!

Thanks,

My PR application processing has been almost completed and received PPR. I got married during the process and contacted IRCC to update on the change in my marital status. I received a bunch of forms to be submitted to add my spouse to my application. I need your help in clarifying few doubts regarding forms:

1. Do we both (primary applicant and spouse) need to fill the generic application form IMM0008?

2. If we are filling generic application form IMM 0008, do we need to submit additional dependents/declaration form IMM 0008DEP?

3. How about forms IMM 5669 and IMM 5406, does it needs to be filled only for spouse or both (primary applicant and spouse)?

It would be great if someone can clear these doubts.

Cheers,
Abbin
