Hi. I will be applying for an Extension (Visitor Record) with the goal to achieve common-law. I cannot work but I have some money stored in a joint bank account. My boyfriend wants to make a letter stating that he will provide financial support for me, he's an intern at the government and a...

I got a strange story. I (20) was the dependent of my father in his Skilled Worker process, my step-mother was the one who handled the paperwork and did everything. I didn't live with them but they kept telling me and my mother I was included as accompanying. I did all the medicals and they got...

Thanks :)

Yes, what I mean is for example We provide a joint bank account opened in MARCH Lease signed in APRIL My phone bill in MAY so forth till it complete a year or would it be all the proof we could get for the specific month we started living together? (bank account, mail, insurance letter, bills...

It may be a silly question, but it is something I've been thinking about a couple of days now and I really don't want to mess up our process. Do we need to provide 12 month worth of proof (proof for every month) or 12 month OLD proof (proof of the month we started to live as common law) ?

Thank you for your reply!

Thank you for sharing your story :) It makes me think that we explain it nicely, we won't have any problem

So if 90% of my process is in French and 10% is in English, it shouldn't be a problem?

1 - does the process have to be ENTIRELY in french? I know that the Forms for Quebec need to be in French and filled in french, but would it be a problem if my proof of long distance relationship or anything attached is in ENGLISH?(some screenshots of facebook posts and messages) 2 - I saw...

I'm in Canada living with my partner, we'll marry so he can sponsor me and we can be together, we already got plans for our future, would that be seen as a Marriage of Convenience, if we lay it out like that for the immigration agent? However we have no money for a wedding party atm and we'd...

Thank you for your reply :) I am from Brazil and our wedding parties are pretty much like the Christian weddings they usually hold in Canada, but we are not interested in a marriage with religious tradition. It'd be nice to have a party just for celebration of our relationship, also both me and...

Hi everyone! I have some questions regarding marriage and language 1 - I saw @canuck_in_uk 's reply at this thread from 2015 saying: "A court marriage will be a big red flag. You will need STRONG relationship proofs to overcome the lack of a traditional wedding. If all you have is a few...

thanks @canuck_in_uk and @canuck78 :) we're anxious our case would seem off because of our age and history/time, but now we are feeling hopeful and relieved :)

Would this history with my father even be worth mentioning in the Sponsorship then, as it's not directly related to our relationship?

Well, I didn't came back to Canada and I was expecting PR until I discovered I wouldn't get it, so I thought it would imply a failed attempt. That's the main reason why we didn't start living together sooner, and the main reason I came to live with him the time I did. Otherwise we couldn't...

do they take so long just to make the marriage certificate? woah

I thought it would raise questions as I had a failed attempt on residence permanency on my past.

thanks. Would the intend to get 12 months for Common-Law be a solid reason to get my visitor visa extended?

Ah, sorry I think I failed to mention if we do go to the Common Law Sponsorship path, I'll stay here on visitor visa until we meet the 12 months criteria.

Hi everyone, I hope you guys are keeping well. Me (Brazilian, 20) and my boyfriend (Canadian, 22) are on a difficult spot and I hope some of you could help us out, we are currently thinking to do the Common-Law Sponsorship once we have met the 12 months cohabitation criteria. I moved to...
