At one point, the sister got married (結婚しました), so the sentence represents the state of her being married.
The father put on weight in the past (太りました), so the sentence shows his current state of being overweight.
This usage of 〜ている only shows a state, so it cannot show action or motion. Note the time progression that results in the following sentences.
1. (これから)死ぬ = 今は生きている。 (The dog is still living)
2. 死にました。 (This is an instantaneous change in state from living to dead)
3. (ずっと/今も)死んでいる。 (The result of the change still exists, as the dog is still dead)
1. (これから)分かる = 今は分からない。 (You don't yet know the cause)
2. 分かりました。 (This is an instantaneous change in state from not knowing to knowing)
3. (今は)分かっている。 (You found out and are still in a state of knowing the cause.)

This is identical to the progressive 'ing' form in English.
This can also be used to show an action which is performed repeatedly over a period of time.
This usage of 〜ている shows action in progress, that is, actions that do not end after a moment.
1. (これから)食べる = まだ食べていない。 (I haven't yet eaten)
2. (今)食べている。 (I am in the process of eating)
3. (もう)食べた。 (The action of eating is finished)

I think a lot of the user-submitted sentences need to be parsed into the different meanings - it looks like all of the original ones are up in the first meaning when they shouldn't be. Maybe the ability to move your sentence to another meaning would be good? If people even bother to come back and fix them...

In the model sentence 「いもうとは、ぎん行でつとめています。」”My younger sister works for a bank", the particle に would read better than で concerning the verb つとめる. Thus, 「いもうとは、ぎん行につとめています。」

The ている construction is often shortened to てる colloquially. You can also shorten ています to てます, but if you're already being polite you'd probably want to say the full thing anyway.

You should stick it in as a 'usage note' so you get credit for it! Since this page has three meanings that would all benefit from your notes, making 3 identical usage notes is completely acceptable.

The title on this page itself is fine, but on the main grammar library page, this pattern shows up as て居る. Again, I'm aware that いる uses the kanji 居る, but when combined with て-form, I'm pretty sure it's almost always written in kana.
