3 year ARC for my wife, how to get it upon entry?

This is very easy. Get her in on a visitor visa, then go to immigration and apply for a PR visa. She will get a 1 year PR visa, then 2 and then another 2, after which she will be a full resident. The PR visa allows working, living and everything else. No voting though I think.

I’m on my 2nd PR visa myself. When I got here, we went to immigration, I had my visitor turned into PR and had the card delivered in 6 days.

Edit: PR is the ARC. Though you won’t have issues getting her in. Some work restrictions but probably nothing to worry about.
