Proof of Living Together

[Beeo08]

Hi, My wife and I just got married together in January and we are now living together. We've been dating for five years. Lots of proof of that. had a nice big wedding in her country with lots of family there. We have lots of proof. We don't really have "proof" that we are living together though. It's my apartment that I rented in her country a few years ago and everything is my name and we haven't changed it. We don't have a joint bank account either as we are just keeping everything in cash at the time. I guess I could take pictures of our apartment and stuff together. The thing is I'm moving back to Canada shortly and then she will follow so we haven't really done all that stuff. Do you think this will be a big deal considering we have tonnes of other proof of our relationship??

Thanks!

You're married; you don't need proof of living together.

Common-Law couples have the onus of proving that have have cohabited for at least one year under the same roof.

Oh ok. I guess I didn't understand that exactly. Thanks for the tip

Hi Ponga, I have a doubt.. I want to apply to QSWP, what are the requirements for proof of living together if we are a gay couple? Here in my country can't have a joint bank account, and we are not married, we've been living together for 3 years now.
