hi! so I would really love some advice on the best way to go about making the move to be with my boyfriend. I will probably seem very naive as I am just diving in to the research.
My boyfriend is a canadian citizen living in BC and i'm an american living in the US. we are 23 & 24 years old and have spent years visiting eachother back and forth many times. the longest I stayed in canada was over 2 months (probably irrelevant sorry) anyway, I suppose my plan is to take advantage of americans being able to live in canada for 6 months with only a passport and move in with him for 12 months. after the 12 months we will apply to have him sponsor me as a common law relationship.
Is this a good idea for my situation? In the 12 months that i'm living there how can I prepare for the application? I am so nervous that I will not have enough proof.. or maybe they will deny us for the mere fact that nothing is really keeping us from getting married. I grow anxious every day I am not with him and I just want to be prepared.
I would really appreciate some advice maybe from some people who are currently going through this.
