Hello Asivad and fellow members,
Hope everything is well. I need your valuable advise again.
I received my PPR today and I will follow your advise to add my spouse on my file
My questions are:
1. Should I submit my passport now and inform CIC after getting my COPR back cause the wedding will be on the 2nd week of December or should I inform the CIC right away without sending my passport?
You cannot add your 'spouse' to this application until after you are married. There is no point in informing IRCC in advance. Recommend that you send in your passport for now, receive the COPR and stamped passport, get married, inform IRCC after that about changes in family composition, send them spouse documents (medicals, PCC(s), proof of marriage, passport etc) and request that your spouse be added to this application. IRCC will typically process this request in 4-6 weeks and ask you to make additional payment following which they will request for both your passports, invalidate your existing COPR and issue both of you COPRs and passport stamps.
2. Do I need to get a new medical as my medical is expiring on March next year. Will it take another 3-4 months to process my spouse's application?
You'll probably need to undergo medicals again, IRCC will inform you if that is required.
Thank you again and I always appreciate your assistance.
