Marriage on visitor visa

[anupreetkaur]

I am planning on visiting my GF of 5 yrs in Vancouver to meet her and her family. If we get married during this stay, will I be able to stay in Canada and file an temp PR and stay there till I receive it? Will I be able to work during this wait time?

The alarm bells are ringing in my head just reading these few statements. I will hold my opinion to myself about this situation.

To the OP. There is never a guarantee you can stay in Canada when you 'visit'. There is no such thing a temporary PR. You are not allowed to work or study without status in Canada.

if op get court married in Canada and filed for inland spousal application then why not ??? he can send request for visa extension also...I don't think so their gonna be any problem ..but about work I already told op their no chance before first stage approval .....and about temp. pr I think op just out of sense because their not such thing ,,,may be op talking about conditional pr ....

You are correct, Harmin. He could in fact apply for an inland spousal application, however, having never met his spouse previously and marrying on their very first encounter is going to make his VO's hair stand up straight with the alarm bell that will go off. He will then likely be denied his PR, or at a minimum left in 'limbo' hanging out here in Canada unable to work or travel or do anything else for a long long long time (likely years) while they try to decide if the relationship is genuine, and send his file to the local office and let it collect some dust there for a while before an interview and such.

Being 'trapped' inside of Canada waiting on an INLAND application is a hard thing even for those of us with a solid strong relationship. Imagine the stress after years of waiting and not being able to leave the country because your application will be automatically denied. Imagine sitting at home for not just a year or so, but 2 or 3 or even 4 years while you wait for an answer. Unable to work or study. No sir, not me, no way! LOL

What country are you from, and have you and your gf spent lots of time together (in person) during the past 5 years of your relationship?
