I am living in Dubai with my husband. I started living with him after our marriage. I have never lived with him before.
there is a question in sponsored spouse / partner questionnaire :
in question number 27 : they are asking
have u and your sponsor lived together?
answer is yes:
then give dates of period of cohabitation: (From date ....to this date)
my question is from the day of my marriage i m living with him till now.
So how could I tell them till what date it ended?
if i write present (should i write it by hand as you can't type "present" in date box)

Also i have never lived with him before marriage so should i answer "NO" to this question ? as they are asking period of cohabitation and cohabitation means "Cohabitation is an arrangement where two people who are not married live together in an intimate relationship"???

Don't rely strictly on Wikipedia :)

Cohabitation is usually used to refer to unmarried couples but it also applies to married couples. Anytime that you lived with your husband, you were cohabiting, so you cannot put "No" for that.

For the end date, because this form doesn't need to be validated, you can print the form out and write "present" by hand.

if that's the case you answer no on the period of cohabitation then yes with the follow up question. i'm not saying this is correct but you can wait until some seniors here in the forum answer your questions :)

They ask for all the periods when you lived together. Before or after marriage. If you are living together now you have 2 alternatives:
1. write the date you filled out the forms. Some forum members did that and they had no problem.
2. leave the box blank, print it like that and write by hand PRESENT - other forum members did that and also had no problems.
