Please house, I am just wondering if someone can help me answer this question. I studied and currently live and work in Canada. I have applied for permanent residence under the CEC route and according to trend, I should be getting my PR by May 2014. The problem is that my girlfriend still lives back home and we are hoping to get married sometime this year.
Our plan is that when she gets here, she will do her masters to ease her transition into the Canadian labour market. I am looking for the fastest way possible to get her here so she can start her masters as quickly as possible. Can we get married, apply for her sponsorship, but while this is ongoing, she applies for a study permit? Would she be denied based on double intent? On the other hand, I would have wanted her to just apply for a study permit prior to our wedding but I don't see her getting this on her own without my financial support as she is not financially buoyant. I am really confused.
I would appreciate if anyone could drop some helpful advice. Thanks.
