My girlfriend wants to study in Canada, we live together for more than 8 years. I was wandering how can I obtain a legal "common-law" status valid in Canada, btw neither of us is a Canadian Citizen.
 
When your girlfriend applies for a study permit she can declare you as a common law partner. You may be able to apply for a spousal open work permit on the basis of her study permit, but they are not guaranteed.
