Immigration by Marriage

[TTMK]

I always thought people can become permanent residents instantly after marriage with a Canadian Citizen, is that false?

If seeking PR, OHIP, and all those other goodies you have to send in an immigration application after (marriage), right?

Does the immigration application require a sponsor or something? (I'm guessing spouse sponsoring.)

I don't think the current laws should change. It appears to me that they are checking to see if marriages are fake. I just wish it was quicker. It took my uncle's wife almost 2 years to get the immigrant visa. I understand the need to check for fraud but my marriage is legit and it was almost like a punishment to have to wait that long.

What if your marriage is legit but they think it's a fraud? Do you know?

They refuse and give you the right of appeal to the Immigration Appeal Board, where you have to prove the marriage is genuine.

They would ask you a bunch of questions about your spouse and your spouses family that you should be able to answer most of if it was a genuine marriage.

Would a child in common do the trick?
