I'm so confused I...

    Want to apply for CL but need to go back to the U.S.

    Hi guys, I need help remembering something. My canadian gf wants to sponsor me through Common law, but if I go back to the states before we file for that..does that make me ineligible? We've lived together over a year but I need to go back to the U.S. for work until I get my PR here. Is this...

    Extension on onverstayed visa after Common Law app.

    Thanks Scylla, But applying for common law would not be a good enough reason to be granted an extension to stay, if I state that's the reason on the app?

    Sticky situation, need clarity.

    Thanks for the response. What does it mean though that his name will go on the form? Is there a chance they will contact him? Or is it just for legal purposes? Thanks so much.

    Sticky situation, need clarity.

    The thing I don't get is how do they expect me to prove such things as utility bills under my name, joint bank account, etc. If I'm not allowed to work here? So the only thing I can show is letters from my family, and I can also have them vouch as witnesses. Besides letters from my family, I...

    Sticky situation, need clarity.

    Her previous relationship was not common law or marriage, they were just together for 15 years..and are now friends. I would be supporting myself and also giving her some money, but it would not be enough and she would still have to accept his money. It is "alimony", but it was a mutual...

    Can I visit after living here for a year?

    hmm..I don't get why I wouldn't be able to visit as soon as I could show that I had a job and stuff. Is it that your not supposed to enter canada at all after you've stayed longer than 6 months?

    does common law allow to travel from canada to US, how can I?

    How do I renew my visitor's status, just by applying for another extension? I guess I should say the reason is because I'm waiting for PR and would like to be able to travel back and forth in the meantime? Thanks.

    does common law allow to travel from canada to US, how can I?

    It has been 13 months now, so do we just apply for common law or do I also have to apply to extend my stay? How long after we apply for common law can I freely travel back and forth? Will they give me a new expiry date on my visa? Thanks

    does common law allow to travel from canada to US, how can I?

    If my gf sponsor's me for common law using outside application, does that allow me to travel back and forth (U.S.)? As of now, my visitor visa expires nov.31. They extended it past 6 months so we could apply for common law. Thanks
