Hi all,

My girlfriend from Ukraine obtained a multiple entry TRV last year until the end of her passport in 2025. In the future we plane to marry.

As my wife, is she still allowed to use the same multiple entry TRV when she was only my girlfriend?

Yes, civil status is irrelevant in this situation.

Thats good to hear!

What would happen with the border guard though? She must obviously tell the truth that she is my wife and no longer just my girlfriend. What is the situation here?

She needs to provide proof of visit purpose. I would suggest providing, proof of employment, proof of leave, funds for stay and return tickets.

She is a "high risk" visitor, therefore prepare appropriately.

Does she supply these documents to CIC again or when she talks to the border guard?

At point of entry if requested.
