Hello evryone..I just recently gave birth and hasnt done anything yet.. I am presently living with my partner who is a TFW,too,.While reading posts in this forum,it really made me believe that processing time for those with dependents and married takes longer than those of single ones.. My friend advised me,(since im not married with him yet),to not to claim national child benefits supplement and in that way i wont have to declare our common law union(since birth of the child) then I will stay single in my application together with my daughter..do u think this is fine while my PR application is in process... My work permit expires december next yr,Im out of my employers 2 weeks before I gave birth,can I apply for maternity benefits?how long? I have just submitted my application august 2 and started processing sept 4..thank you..I hope somebody could give me some ideas on wat to do.

Hi
2. You lie on your application, it gets refused and you are barred for 2 years.
3. You don't claim the Common/law relationship, when CIC learns of it, you can never sponsor him/her.
4. CIC doesn't believe in the stork delivering babies, they are going to be interested in your relationship with the father.
5. You said you have a C/law relationship, I hope you have been a "live in" caregiver.
1. You need new friends.livmckella said:

theres no problem with the "live in" situation. you see each other after work like friday nights up to monday morning. now your on maternity leave so its obviously your not working. and you and your partner will only consider common law after one year of living together.
A common-law partner
Refers to a person who is living in a conjugal relationship with another person either of the opposite sex or same sex, and has done so for a period of at least one year. A conjugal relationship exists when there is a significant degree of commitment between two people. Common-law partners must attach any documents that show they are in a committed and genuine relationship, for example evidence that they share the same home, that they support each other financially and emotionally, that they have had children together, or that they present themselves in public as a couple.
Common-law partners who are unable to live together or appear in public together because of legal or cultural restrictions in their home country may still qualify and should be included on the application.
Common-law partners are also persons who meet the conditions outlined above but who have been separated for reasons beyond their control (for example, civil war or armed conflict).

thank you guys..btw,,,about my pr in process..,,,do you think its fine if i will choose to stay unemployed? i submitted my application last august,,my work permit expires dec. 2012 and i already quit my live in job since i cant handle the kids with my baby..
thankss.. do u think it will create a problem with my pr in process and unemployed for more than a yr since the processing s getting longer?
Being unemployed wont affect your application. You already completed 24mons requirement and applied for OWP,PR. After your current work permit expires youll be on " implied status" just remember your MSP will expire as same moms of your work permit can extend 3- 6mons depending on province.
Its hard being unemployed while waiting the decission of your papers if u want unemployed for 18moS or more depends upon the processiing of your pr its up to you to decide. If you have enough money to support yourself being unemployed while waiting your pr then its your choice.. Good luck and God bless us all!
thanks ebony and lyn..
