I got my COPR recently but i have to get married before i land in Canada. My queries are below:

1. How to notify the VO ?
2. Is it through email id ? then which email id ? If not is it through MyCIC account ? How to do in this case?
3. I have to inform VO from how many days after my marriage? Is it on the same day or i have to inform only after i get my marriage certificate ?
4. What all documents i need to submit ? Will i have sufficient time in hand to collect all these documents ? I have to these documents by uploading in MyCIC account?
5. Since i am the Principal applicant, do i need to have to show Proof of Funds for my spouse also(12300+12300) ?
6. Is there any thread in this forum where i can be guided with the right steps ?

Pls help guys with some details. Thanks.

The bottom line is: Don't land after marriage before adding your spouse to the PR application. After marriage, you will have to return your CoPR and can't use to land anymore.
1-2. Send an email to CPC Ottawa (CPC-CTD-Ottawa@cic.gc.ca) or raise a CSE via IRCC webform (link below). They will send you the exact procedure you have to follow to add your spouse and what documents you will need to submit.
3. You can inform them anytime after marriage and before landing.
4. Generally, Marriage Certificate, Medicals, Police Certificates, Passport, and Photo. Yes, you will have enough time to gather all documents and you can always ask for extensions.
5. Yes, this is very important, but the amount is $15,312 for a family of two. See link below.

Good Luck!
