    Date you entered into commonlaw filled wrong on imm0008

    I did the same thing as you did. I didn't correct it and I successfully got my PR. In an additional sheet to explain the details of cohabitation, I clearly wrote 'start to cohabit on DDMMYYYY' and that's the date I put in the form as well. I don't think they saw my form as misrepresentation.

    Marriage in Japan - Which is the marriage certificate ?

    I think you are in right way; kon'in todoke no juri shomeisho is more official according to your quote from japan.gc.ca. shomeisho (means 'certification' or 'confirmation') sounds more legit than todoke (means 'order') for me. A translation business website says...

    I actually had very unpleasant experience to get my temp SIN with OWP. I was also happy, bubbly, and wonderful feeling grabbing a piece of paper.
