Hi Everyone! Maybe someone can give me advice on that. With my bf we are applying through common law inland - so we need cohabitation for at least 1 year.
We live together since 13.02.2018, that's the day when I arrived to Canada with my International Experience Canada 1 year work permit. On the work permit it was written "must leave Canada by 12.02.2019" and I did that - I was back in my country from 12.02.2019 to 6.03.2019, then I came back and I'm here since then. I don't consider it as a break of cohabitation but who knows what officer will think about that...
Anyway, when I fill out the forms, I need to enter the date when we enter to common law relationship (guide says: "Enter the date (year, month, day) you were married or you entered into your current common-law or conjugal relationship, i.e. the date your status officially changed from being single to common-law, not the date you started living together."
and I'm just wondering if I should put 12.02.2019 [cohabitation from 13.02.2018 to 12.02.2019 - would it count as one year? In my opinion, it could technically] or 13.02.2019 [even though I was already gone to my country, left Canada on 12th evening]. It seems like a tiny detail but I'm just wondering if it could ruin entire application.....
