CEC Express Entry Family Question

[anatolii]

Hello everyone,

I am applaying for permanent residency together with my common law partner.
We are both live and work in Canada.

I have alredy filled-up martial status section, where indicate gender, name, and date of beginning of relationship

My question is following:

Under Personal Details section, under Family subsection => question "How many family members does Anatolii have? (This includes Anatolii, a spouse or partner, dependent children, and their dependent children.)
what sholud I select 1 or 2? It is a bit condusing because it only says spouse, which from my undersdanding means married person. We are not married yet.

another question under Family subsection is:

How much money (in Canadian dollars) will Anatolii bring to Canada to support themselves and their family?

If me and my common law partner already live Canada what should i type?

Thank you,
Anatolii

As long as you're a CEC applicant it doesn't matter what number you state.

2. For IRCC, "spouse" means married or common-law.

Does not matter where you live, it matters only what the program requirements are. If you expect to qualify under CEC you can put 0 or any number you want, because there is no "proof of funds" requirement for CEC class. If you hope to qualify under FSW, then you need to see the "funds" requirements -
