In interpretation of those cases, cohabitation means stayed together. You are not going to get it wrong if you state that you cohabitted for a period of 3 weeks during your visit OR if you check NO and then somewhere (either in describing the development of the relationship or in a cover letter) advise the VO that you stayed together for those 3 weeks of the visit or as a part of the honeymoon, etc. Yes, it is absolutely important to put it SOMEWHERE. That's part of what was lacking in some of those cases, either they didn't report it at all or there were discrepancies in the testimony concerning whether or not the couples had stayed together for any time and the length of time.
It is open to interpretation. I'm assuming (which I shouldn't) that if you select NO for this question that you WILL indicate it elsewhere on the application. Bottom line is to make sure that it is IN the application somewhere. As long as you do that, it is counted. I have a feeling that these applications were very poorly prepared at the outset.
Yeap, there is a question for that under Maintaining Contact (visits) .. and you will also be asked to indicate if you stayed together in the same location .....
And another one is after wedding ... honeymoon and such
Questions are very broad, that is true ......
