Will solo travel jeopardize common-law status?

Hello,

My boyfriend and I are applying for PR under a common law relationship. In July we'll have lived together for a year. I am planning to travel alone for 4-6 weeks in May and I'm wondering if this will jeopardize our year together in a common-law relationship. I'll still be on the lease and paying rent but technically i won't be living with him for 4-6 weeks. Anyone know if that might be a problem? He'd come with me but with visas we're concerned about re-entry into Canada.

Thanks for your help!!

you're allowed to travel for short time periods but i'm not exactly sure what they are.... maybe if you have a good reason for the travel and reason why you couldn't both be together. They may look at it on an individual basis... i am in kinda the same situation except we travelled together but it was for 2 months and we had no lease or no apt at the time but i think it's going to be ok since we were together!
Just give all the reasons why you had to travel.
