All depends when ur planning to get married. If ur not planning for next 8 month then apply as single if ur planning to marry soon apply together. It really doesnot matter as long as you are eligible and have All documents

Thanks for your reply

We are planning to get married this year too. Do you have an idea if which is longer? apply as single or apply as married? Some of my friends says that if we apply as single is faster than to apply as married.

Like what you said it really doesn't matter if single or married its just bothering me if how long does it take the processing time?

Thank you for your reply really appreciated

No Advantage whether single or couple.
If ur planning to get married soon then apply as couple will save unnecessary updates which you have to do after ur marriage

Processing time for 80% applicants is 13 months.
lot of people i know got married in canada to apply for PR. But they got traditionally married later at their home country which is usually after 4-5 months..
