Hello,

Thank you for sharing this situation and question with us.

You can find some information regarding marriage in Ontario in our Settlement.Org Who can get married in Ontario? article.

This article mainly discusses the requirements to get married in Ontario.

In terms of benefits, we are unsure what type of benefits you are referring to. If you are referring to benefits such as social assistance type benefits, simply getting married in Ontario would not make someone qualify for that type of assistance.

I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions and if there is any follow up to your question/situation.

Good day.

I’m an international student in Canada, I live with my girlfriend. She is on eta status-visitor attending english learning school.We are planning wedding here. After we do the wedding what is her status. May she travel outside Canada and return. I read somewhere she is entitled to a work permit, the SIN number, and my status in Canada. Where may I find more info about that.

Thanks
