Hi everyone, I've been granted with a quebec selection certificate so I'm planning to move to quebec very soon, the issue is that I have a fiance and she didn't apply with me, so what I'm planning to do is to marry her in canada being me a permanent resident and she just a visitor. Then we will apply for an inland sponsorship application the next day we marry. So the question is, Is this is possible to do?, If it is possible, it will have to much complications?. Ps: She need a visa to enter canada. Thanks for the help.

you can do that.......but i think if you marry her let her go back to her countrie and then file for her......that process is quicker than inland but it is up to you on what you want to do

It depends... depending on where she is from, it might be quicker to go the inland route, or the outland one. Also - if she needs a visa to Canada, she might get denied because she is engaged to you - and CIC will think ( and with a reason) that she won't leave at the end of her visa. So you can try inland, which would be nicer because then you could be together, but you might have to do outland if she is refused a visa anyway.
Also - I'm not familiar with Quebec, and their immigration programs, but if you are already common-law (living together for 12 months) then you might be able to add her onto your work permit? also - depending on your situation, you might have to declare her as your partner already ( if you haven't lived together, then you don't).
Good luck,
Sweden

Yes, I think is quicker with a inland application because the number of months for the application to be processed in my country are 17. And she wont say anything to the immigration officer about she being engaged. And most importantly it will be very hard for me to be without her. Thanks.

Have you and your fiancee lived together for 12 months or longer?

What did you say when you were applying for your visa with regards to your marital status? Were you living together or already engaged when you applied?

No, for the quebec skilled worker application they don't ask you if you are engaged, you only need to inform if you are married or you have been living with a conjugal partner for more than a year and neither of both are my situation.

Ok. Not familiar with the Quebec "rules". I have heard people run into issues regarding declaring relationships initially an then not being able to sponsor their partner.

Depending on what country your partner is from, it may be difficult to get a TRV. There are tons of posts here that will give you a good outline of what types of proof is required, and so on.

Good Luck!

Proofs like prove that the relationship genuine? She will apply for a tourist or a student visa we haven't decided yet.

When you apply for the visa (as a tourist) you need to provide proof that she will not over stay. A letter of employment, rental contracts, financial ability to support herself during her stay ect.

I am unsure what is required for the student visa, but I am sure someone will poke their head in and offer you more info.

This site is FULL of helpful people that have knowledge and experience. Sometimes with a holiday weekend or time zones, you just have to be patient for them to come along....

Take Care

No. For a tourist visa or a student visa, the applicant has to prove she will leave Canada once the visa's time is up. So she will have to provide proof of ties to her own country or wherever she is living: such as a return ticket with a fixed date; a job, ideally with a letter from the boss giving her a certain amount of time off; a lease or mortgage or other property; a bank account or investment; enough money to support herself; etc. Some or all of these may be difficult to get in some countries and in some situations.

Proof that her relationship to you is genuine will not help her get a TRV or student visa. This is just evidence she will overstay. Now, once you get married and have sent in her application for a PR visa, then some forum members have been able to get a TRV while the PR is being processed. It is difficult, though.
