Hello everyone,

I need help in determining the date me and my common-law shall write on these documents.

Question 8
  1. Tell us your current marital status. See the “Key Definitions” for explanations of the different types of marital status.
  2. 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.
Our situation is that, we moved in together on June 10, 2017 and have been living together since then. According to CIC, we became common-law on June 10, 2018 (exactly 1 yr after cohabiting in a marriage-like conditions).
So the date i should enter in the forms (5710, 0008 and 1344) is June 10, 2018, right? Confirming to make sure that the date is right as the statement above states "not the date you started living together". Don't want to make any errors in the forms.

Thanks in advance!
