Anglecalling,
One of mine friends did ME in Guangzhou early this August, still waiting for further response from the embassy. Throughout the world, unfortunately Canadian gov is a huge but not productive one, many work in a pretty sluggish style, especially the immigration dept which is under continuous domestic and offshore critics. Part of the reasons is being too much bureaucratic with full blackbox operation. It is told corruption happens now and then as well.
For your marriage, suggestions:
1. Send the consulate an update about your marriage certificate right away if you have not received LP yet. In this case, you got to wait for a few more couple of months. Send back your LP at the same time if you have received your LP.
2. Land in Canada first if you have received your LP. Don't bring your spouse-to-be along with you though when you do so. Later on get married and sponse your spouse to Canada. In this case,two drawbacks are there. One, you got to wait for another six to twelve months per the current situation. Second, by the new law you have to be responsible for your spouse for the next three to ten years and the gov would not like your spouse to live on social benefit.
Now it is your call how to proceed futher.
Have a good luck. |
