Do I have enough evidence?

[jetrel]

My gf is going to be sponsoring me for PR at the end of the month (when we will have been living together for one year). So far I have (or can get):

• Lease agreement drawn up by her parents for the months we spent living at their house. (I don't actually have this yet - there won't be any issue drawing up an agreement now, when we moved out ~6 months ago?)
• Lease agreement for our new place, which covers the 1 year mark.
• Confirmation letter from bank showing my old address when I set up account.
• Letter from bank for girlfriend, showing same old address as I.
• Driver's licenses for both of us, showing our new address.
• Credit card confirmation letter for me, showing new address.
• I can get letters from friends/family confirming the genuine-ness of our relationship.
• Maybe some old letters of my girlfriend's to the old address that her dad might have kept.
• A hand-written envelope from my uncle with the old address (is this OK if it's handwritten?)
• Photos of us from Facebook (do photos have to be actual photos? Or will print-outs on normal paper be ok?)
• Copies of hotel receipts from earlier this year, plus concert tickets for us both (no name on the tickets, leave them out?)
• Hotels/flights from a couple years ago when we were only friends, before we were dating. Should I even include these?

Does this sound like enough for a solid application? Or is it going to be hit-and miss? We don't have any joint accounts, the hydro and internet is in my name. There's bank transfers between my gf and I for various stuff, is this good evidence?
Thanks.

You have lots of good documents.....submit the documents as required in the checklist.

For a lot of governments one of the principal determinants for judging the legitimacy of a relationship is financial ties. The more you can demonstrate your finances are intertwined, the more credible you will be. Definitely include the bank transfers, anything that indicates shared assets or responsibilities. Your new lease is good evidence, the old lease by her parents is less compelling (unless you can show transfers monthly?). The letters from your family and friends are important here, as are the photos. Correspondence between you (e.g., text messages, Facebook messages) is also helpful. As Wakki suggested, go through the checklist, then include more evidence than the minimum. Include a cover letter that lists the additional evidence. I chose to print photos so that I could write on their backs.

Good luck!
