Hi Guys,

I will be getting married in India in April and then subsequently will be filling our forms for her immigration.
My question is as follows:

A. In order to expedite the process can she have her medical and police clearence done BEFORE marriage under her pre-marital last name? Is this acceptable to the CIC?

A1. She will eventually be changing her last name to mine, does this have to be done before the application is filed?
A2. Can the change of name be done while the application is in process?
A3. If this is allowed how does one inform CIC about a name change? Does this slow down the process?

B. I will not be returning to Canada immediately after my marriage and will be satying in India for some time and then will be Europe for some work. Does anyone know if I it is acceptable to mail her immigration paperwork (I mean all of it, including my sponsor paperwork) from India while I am still there after our marriage?

I am a Canadian Citized and permanently reside in Canada but my work now has asked me to do some travels for a few weeks after our wedding.

Please shed some light on this for me, any help would be appreciated.

Regards

Medical need to be done after marriage only
If your wife is changing the last name it's good to have it before filing the application and the police clearance can also be under the new last name.


A1. She will eventually be changing her last name to mine, does this have to be done before the application is filed?

Yes I would recommend this

A2. Can the change of name be done while the application is in process?

Yes it can be done but I would not recommend it to do that while in process

A3. If this is allowed how does one inform CIC about a name change? Does this slow down the process?

You can inform the office in writing by referring the Case Number and YES it will slow down the process, It is good if you can change the name right after marriage and then file the application

B. I will not be returning to Canada immediately after my marriage and will be satying in India for some time and then will be Europe for some work. Does anyone know if I it is acceptable to mail her immigration paperwork (I mean all of it, including my sponsor paperwork) from India while I am still there after our marriage?[/i]

If you are a permanent resident you need to be present in Canada in order to file an application, If you are citizen then I think you can do it from outside Canada ( refer to www.cic.gc.ca )

I hope it helps.

Hi there,
I have a question about sending passport to ND. Should we send a self-addressed envelope with passport? should envelope be stamped? Are there any rules posted by ND about sending the passport? Please let me know the process of sending the passport to ND. Regards...V
 
Hi vish;

I dont think that you need to send a self addressed envelope along with passport.we paid like $ 1040 big fat fee which includes atleast the postage.

But still read the ppr when it arrives.

Still long time to get the PPR :-(

Thanks Panda,
