Hi, I am not looking for guidance on the actual sponsorship application. I am trying to learn more about the process of getting married in India, to an Indian National, while being a Canadian Citizen

I am Indian and my husband is Canadian, we got married in India and applied for a marriage certificate after the wedding last September. Once you receive your marriage certificate, you can submit it with the spousal application. It’s a simple process.

Often not that simple especially if minimal time in person and arranged marriage. You typically also need to show you had traditional ceremonies, time spent together, communication records, etc

Yes collecting and giving proof of relationship is not a simple process. But I got the sense the question was based on marrying an Indian as a Canadian, if there are any specific process. Regardless of religion, once they get married and receive the marriage certificate there is all that is to be done.

Thanks for your response! While I understand the process for spousal application, I am actually wondering if there are any rules and implications in India for a Canadian Citizen (of Indian Origin) to get married there? My citizenship is under process and most probably I will have to go to India for (my wedding) with a e-VISA. I understand that OCI application takes a few months so e-VISA is my only option. Are there any rules against getting married with an e-VISA?

My husband came on eVisa as well when he came for the wedding. There are no rules or as such. You can come and have the wedding, apply for marriage certificate from your spouse’s jurisdiction.
