Getting Married On PGWP

[akil_f1]

Hi all Seniors ,

I am getting married in September.I am on pgwp which expires in 2015.i am eligible to apply for PR under CEC ,NOC B.
Q1-what is the best and fastest way to bring my wife inside the country?
Q2-should i file my PR or wait until she is here and file altogether.

Is there any one who recently faced the same situation and can share their exp?

You may apply for Visitor Visa or if eligible you may apply for a open work permit for your spouse.

It may take less time to get a Visitor visa compared to work permit. You need to check processing times for your Visa Office. One more thing is if you apply for a open work permit for your spouse, your spouse may be required to do a Medical Exam.
