Hi, I am coming to Vancouver for Post Grad degree, work and PR after.
I graduated from UC Irvine, US with BA- Economics. Have 3.5 years of working experience -1.5 in US ( tax, customer service, property management) and 2 in Vietnam( logistics+sales). I had my student permit+visa to come to Canada and will be in Vancouver this winter for post grad in Marketing. My GF is still in Vietnam.

Someone from Vancouver told me I should get married before I go because it would be easier to get my GF-soon to be wife- to Canada with me and when I get PR, both of us can get PR.

However, couple more people from Canada- Calgary- told me a different story, they told me that I should get PR first because it is easier for 1 person to get PR than a couple to get PR. I am very confused right now and need your advice. Grin

Please let me know what you guys think?


Thank you and best regards,

P/S: What is the best+fastest way to get PR in BC Vancouver? I am still Vietnam citizen

Have a great week y'all.

It will be faster / easier if you marry your girlfriend before you apply for PR. Applying as a couple is generally no different than applying as single.

If you have further questions you should really post them to the International Students section of the forum.

Your questions about how to best get PR status in Vancouver should also be asked in the International Students section of the forum.
