Visitor visa for my common law partner

[Agomez]

Hi,
I already have a study permit (I start studying remotely) and I have been living with my boyfriend for more than a year by now. I didn't do my paperwork with him because we didn't have a year living together by then. I would like to know, if it is possible for him to travel to Canada as a visitor and if a notarized copy of our common law partner agreement is enough to show the immigration office that we are together. He wants to be travelling constantly to visit me because he has a very good job in our home country.

thanks! Any advices ?

If he has his visitor visa and you are common law, he needs written authorization to travel. He can’t enter Canada without it. You need to prove common law so a notarized copy of common law agreement may not be enough. You need to show that you lived together continiously for one year (rental, utilities, bills etc.)
