You can place in your application that he is your common law partner so that you can use your maiden name on your application.

Your common law partner should be listed in your application as your common law partner. If you marry him, you should let CIC know once you have the marriage certificate that you have married. That doesn't mean you have to change your name though. In Canada, you are allowed to marry and keep your name. It is up to you if you want to change.

I have a dilemma, I got married in the philippines but my marriage contract will not be released till end of july. I want to send my FSW application by july 1 because the quota for nurses gets filled up easily. Can I just send the certified true copy of our marriage contract that I have now?
Btw, I just want to ask if I got this right..does this mean that I don't need to change the name in my passport? Coz that will still be a lot of time wasted if I do change my name. Thanks a lot!
