Accompanying partner when applying for PR

[sulanku9]

So my boyfriend and i came to Canada as international students. We’ve lived together since and all our papers are tagged as single

We’re currently under pgwp and now creating profiles for PR. Question is:

Is it okay for us to have individual profiles, but list our marital status as “common law”, while making our profiles “non-accompanying”? Or can this be risky?

Has anyone done this without issue?

If common law and both working in Canada, then you are accompanying. That is misrepresentation.

You can create your own account each, listing yourself as a principal applicant. But in this case non-accompanying is really a misrepresentation not because your are both in Canada but because your are both creating profiles and demonstrating your intention to apply.

After a year of living together you should have been declaring yourselves as common law on all forms of documentation including taxes. Would refile.
