Hi Guys!
I am an international master student at UBC nearing graduating in civil engineering soon next year. I plan to apply through the BC PNP program early next year when the system is open. Undoubtedly, I will need your help to through the whole immigration process. But right now I am meeting with an dilemma about my marital status. And this really matters if I will get married right now with my girlfriend or wait until the whole immigration process is done. I really hope you can advise me about this.
Right now I am planning to get married, but I am quite concerned and worried wondering if a married person will have disadvantage over a single applicant. For instance, when BC government consider an application, it is easier for a single applicant to get approved compared to a married person. Is it this case.
I am just wondering if getting married will influence the PNP nomination process. Just to know if getting married will have some negative impacts on the PNP result compared to a single person.
Background: master from UBC will apply for PNP
Confused if I get married now, any bad impacts on my PNP application?
Have you already submitted your application? Which province?
In case you get married during the process of PR, you will have to inform CIC or the province you have sent your documents to. It is important to inform these changes to CIC/province as and when they happen.
If you hide this information, it will definitely affect your case.
Thanks for your reply. I haven't started the BC PNP yet, just planning to apply for it in 2016. But I am hesitant to get married or not before the application. Just want to know any difference for a married applicant and a single applicant in terms of easiness of PNP. Any bad impacts for a married person compare to a single applicant.
