Feb 27 i got additional documents requeste regarding my wife. 1) Is it necessary to change my wife name in passport? Or she can keep her passport as is ( before marriage passport)? 2) will she be able to get PCC done from india as now she have to select marriage status as married ? 3) IRCC gave only 30 days , but in India it is slow it would take 2 months can how do i ask for extension and give them proof for it ? Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you

Adding a new spouse to an in-process (non-Express Entry) PR application: forms, fees, PCC, and deadlines
Parth Parmar It's not hard to fill these forms. It's basically, Schedule-A, Personal history, travel history and the generic application form. If you check your PR application, these forms were part of your initial PR application as well. It's basically doing the same process now for your spouse via paper, that's the only difference.
Parth Parmar You would require a separate account to pay. It won't let you use your account to pay. Just use her email id to pay the fees and upload the receipt with the rest of the docs.
Aishwarya Balaji Hey do you know which fees do we pay when we add spouse in our ongoing PR file ? I already paid RPRF and biometrics. Do we pay processing fees ?
1) Not required to change name 2) Yes. Take marriage certificate with you along with address proof.. shouldn't be an issue
Parth Parmar The same fees that you paid initially, your spouse will have the same ones.
Aishwarya Balaji does it matter if i pay her fees from my online account ?
