PR Card Dilemma

[samsonsunny]

I have received my visa to enter Canada by July 25th 2020. I am getting married on the 26th of April. Between now and 26th April there are 74 days (i.e 53 working days). Would that be enough to get my PR card before I return back to my home country for my marriage? If not could I have the PR card couriered to me or carried by a friend who is travelling to India? What is the risk involved in both the cases?

If not, how long would I need to wait until I go to Canada after marriage (i.e after submitting my marriage certificate and my fiances PCC and Medical certificate and other docs)? Would the visa that I have now be eligible for travel to Canada after I get married? What options do I have?

It may be. If it isn't, you could certainly have it couriered or carried. The risk is losing it in the post.

If you don't get your PR card at all, you need to apply for a PR travel document to return to Canada which can take a few weeks.

Can I enter Canada after marriage and then have my marital status changed and submit other required documents ?

Now a days they are coming pretty fast, a friend of mine got it in less than 15 days (received in mail) in under 15 days.

No. You must either land before marriage, or get married and request your COPR be updated.

If you come to Canada after being married and do not update your COPR, you will never be able to sponsor your spouse.
