Thanks, I will do so. :) Do you think I will have to fill out the Statutory Declaration of Common-law union as well? The form has a blank for the number of years living together, but since I am applying as conjugal I was wondering if I should just put N/A to that certain blank, or I should just...

Hi Jaison, how's your application? I am new to this FSW application process, I just want to know... Do you need to have taken the CRNE before you can apply for NOC 3012?

Hi guys, what is the first step to take in preparing for FSW application? 1. Do you have to have a license to practice in Canada before you can apply? Or you only need to have a license in your home country while applying? 2. What designated organizations for Educational Credential Assessments...

Hi guys, I have a question... While waiting for a Spousal Sponsorship application, can one apply as a Federal Skilled Worker as well? I hope to sponsor my conjugal partner later on, but since they say that's hard to prove, can my partner apply as FSW as well at the same time while my application...

Is this still applicable today? I mean, applying for FSW while a waiting for a Sponsorship Application by a PR common-law partner?

Re CRNE, I think it depends on the province you're going to apply for. In Alberta it's as follows: Listening 7.5 Reading 6.5 Writing 7.0 Speaking 7.0 Overall 7.0

I understand that most of us here are not really sure and we are just sharing our opinions but let's try not to spread wrong information. I don't want to argue with anyone, but I would like to correct the notion that you cannot be in a common-law relationship if you are previously married. The...

In my understanding, you can declare someone as your common-law partner so long as you have previously cohabited together for 1 year, and shared a conjugal relationship. You do not need to be single, so long as you are not still enjoying a marital relationship with your previous spouse. In the...

Thanks for sharing this information. I have been googling tirelessly of a situation like that. I did once read about a guy here in the forums who was depressed because his wife was dropped from the application when the officer was not satisfied of the proofs he submitted. I felt too shy to ask...

Well, part of the reason why I wanted to move to Canada is because we can get married there and the pay is better. To tell you the truth, despite the fact that both of us have jobs we just can't afford to go somewhere else and get married. I'm from Asia, in a 3rd world country and we are not...

What do you think would happen to my application? I was wondering if they would just approve my application (assuming that there are no other causes for refusal) but drop my partner from the application or they'd reject the application altogether and have me re-apply without including my partner...

hi guys, I have decided to include my partner in my PR application as a conjugal partner, but now I am confused how. In the Generic application form for Canada IMM 0008, question #13 "your current marital status" there is no Conjugal-Partner among the options. The options available are: A...

By any chance, do you have an idea what happens to a PR application if the declared partner is not approved? I am wondering they'd refuse my application altogether if they do not accept the proof of our relationship. I've read it's very hard to prove a conjugal relationship.

Hi! thanks for the reply. I am in a same sex relationship and gay marriage is not legal here in our country. We have not lived together for personal reasons (our relationship is viewed immoral in our society/religion) and only our closest friends and my family know of our relationship. We appear...

Hi everyone! I have a similar problem with my PR application right now. I am about to leave my home country with a Temporary Work Permit in Canada, and I am currently completing my PR application package. I am confused how to declare my girlfriend as conjugal partner since the option is not in...

oh, that's sad... if that is the case, she wouldn't be able to sponsor her partner later on, right?

Yeah, that's why I am very hesitant about declaring my relationship status as common-law. I already have a Temporary Work Permit and I am scheduled to land next month. I am only afraid of sending in my PR application without including my partner because I might lose the chance of sponsoring her...

We are not married, and my partner and I have not cohabited due to personal reasons (same-sex relationship is not legal in my country and it is viewed as immoral). Only our closest friends and my family know about our relationship and we appear as best friends to the general public. My partner...

Thanks for the reply, Ponga. I appreciate it. I am the principal applicant under Yukon Nominee. I am preparing my application package for Permanent Residence. You are right, none of the other options apply. My concern is if I declare myself single, then I will not be able to include my partner...

I would really love to do that, but I am afraid that they will reject my application altogether since I have no proof that we have lived together. Well, we really haven't. We do have a genuine relationship. You're right though, it's definitely hard to prove since there is no legal proof of our...
