Raise a CSE updating IRCC of your change in marital status. You will then have to provide certain documents from your spouse (marriage certificate, medicals, police certificates, among other forms).

There are a ton of threads in this forum regarding this topic.

But of course for sure do NOT land as single when you are married

But when I received my COPR I was unmarried . Is it still an issue ?

Although thanks for the heads up, I’ll make sure to not make that mistake.

It's not an issue that you have received your COPR, the issue would be landing in Canada without informing IRCC of your change in marital status.

Hey Nitash, I am in the same boat as you were, I got the COPR in August 2018, have to enter Canada before May 2019. I am getting married in Jan 2019. I am planning to update CIC and add my spouse after our marriage. I am not sure about a couple of things -
1) Does she need to give IELTS?
2) Will they re-calculate my score?
3) How much time did the entire process take for you?
4) Would you advise on making a soft landing before marriage or just update the CIC after our marriage so that we both can the COPR?
