Yes you have answered questions for me before We have yet to be legally married and how can we be common law if he can only be in Canada as a Visitor? I chose conjugal partner because for 5 years have been in a committed relationship (he visited me many times). We could not progress in our relationship because of an extremely adversarial separation/divorce proceedings I was going through. It was a nasty piece of business that took years to resolve.taffy7 said:i'm sure i have answered questions before for you . Isn't your partner from the U.k. and you are in Canada. If this is so you can't apply as conjugal partners. It will be either common law or spouse that you have to apply under.
He was here "visiting" me in Canada from Oct 2012 - May 2014. We applied extend his stay and that took until December 2013 for CIC to inform us of their refusal. Granted we did live together during this time, but from what I understand that in itself does not constitute a common law partnership. For common law they wanted proof such as rental agreements, utility bills etc in both our names or his. I thought I was doing the right thing by choosing Conjugal Partner... Have we totally messed up? !
