Hey all.

So I've been here since 2016 june so i am technically common law already but didn't start official documents (bank etc til 2017 may...) now we are working on doing official stuff to help my chances. I am nz citizen. What should I be doing? We are leasing soon under both our names. Have a joint bank&creditcard, will file 2017 as commonlaw(tax) and im his vehicle beneficiary, and he is my insurance beneficiary. What other official documents should we do? And should I do inland when the time comes? (I work under wp and love this job. Thank you

Some useful stuff here. Aimed at Brit PA's, but pretty generic and I am sure applicable to you too!
