    Common Law - 1 year living together but have to leave country

    I want to go back to England even though I do have enough money saved to be able to stay, I don't want to spend it just on rent. My boyfriend and I can survive 6 or so months apart and it would also give him chance to move back with his parents to save for going to college in September.

    I was thinking of this but it would mean I wouldn't be able to work and my boyfriend and I live in an expensive apartment.. Are you sure I can still apply? I'd love to be able to see it somewhere in writing from an official website. Sarah
