I (Chinese mainland) married my boyfriend (Canadian). How to go through the formalities in marriage immigration?

Canadian immigration law encourages family reunion. A fiancee or fiance can also apply to immigrate to Canada, reunite with their unmarried spouses in Canada, complete their wedding in Canada and settle down in Canada. However, this requires both men and women to live together for at least one year before they can form a marriage fact and provide enough "evidence". With regard to the family reunion of the fiance (wife) (note: both men and women have lived together for at least one year), Canadian visa officers attach great importance to examining whether this unmarried relationship is true for the application of the fiancee or fiance from China. Therefore, it is suggested that Chinese citizens apply for tourist visas. In view of the actual situation in China, the chances of unmarried family reunion immigrants getting visas are very small.

In addition, Canadian permanent residents or citizens can apply for husband and wife reunion after legally marrying their spouses overseas. Canadian permanent residents or citizens returning to China for marriage registration, regardless of whether they have household registration or identity cards in China, must apply for a "single certificate" in Canada before returning to China for marriage registration. Pay attention to the following questions when registering:

1. If China citizens holding Canadian green cards want to get married in China, according to the laws of China, young men must be at least 22 years old and young women must be at least 20 years old to register for marriage.

2. Canadian citizens and China citizens living in Canada (Canadian green card holders) must provide them to the civil affairs department of China when they get married in China.

1) Canadian passport and visa to China, and green card holders provide Canadian permanent residence certificate;

2) The hospital physical examination certificate recognized by the civil administration;

3) A single certificate that has been processed in Canada. Divorce requires divorce judgment and Chinese translation.

4) China citizens and Canadians living in various provinces of Canada must be notarized by Canadian lawyers or notaries, certified by the notary department of the local provincial government, and then sent to the consulate in China for certification. 5) It usually takes five working days to go through the document authentication formalities at the China Consulate. In case of special circumstances, it needs to be handled urgently, and the pick-up on the same day needs extra urgent fees.
