What are you flagpoling for? Keep in mind flagpoling is now limited at some border crossings including Rainbow Bridge.

So when did you become common-law with one year of proven, continuously living together? When did you get your permit, and when you got your permit you listed yourself as common-law?

So how are you eligible for SOWP if you don’t meet common-law requirements? Common-law is proving that you have lived together continuously for at least one year. Once you are married, your are eligible or once you have lived together for at least a year whichever is first.

There are always reasons to deny but if you can prove a long term and genuine relationship and married certificate, it should be okay.

It seems like you have been trying to come to Canada for a while and have at least one or two refusals for WP/Visitors.
You need to reassess and choose the right path if you want to move here permanently. That's my observation.

Your posts from earlier this year tell a different story. Anyways, I'm just saying you need to apply for the right program to achieve your long term goal, whatever it is. Good luck

"Good morning,

Yeah i had the same declined reason when i applied back on Nov, my fiance is on a work permit there, she invited to pass a week together due to our anniversary and i was declined because of the same reason, however i never added any of my kids birth certificate, vehicle registration, along with job and college letter to show strong ties to CAD also we change the purpose of trip on this time since her birthday is coming in April.

Hope i get thru this time."
