Hello everyone.
My boyfriend and I are planning to apply for common law sponsorship soon.
As for document checklist( government issued documents) we are including BCIDs with the same address, should we just take a picture of them? How can we prove that it’s been a year since the address has been changed?
Also if we’re including hydro bills under both names do those have to be from one year period? He added my name a lot later ( about 4-5 months ago), so just wondering if we have to wait more so we have sufficient amount of evidence.
Appreciate your help!

A lease with both of your names would be helpful to prove your 1 year cohabitation. Yes, all proofs need to show that you have lived together for 1 continuous year before submission date.

What proofs do you actually have that show you both living at the same address for at least one year?
