Hi,
I'm in relationship for 6 years now, we applied for Common-law and application completed by me getting PR, after more than 2 years as PR our relationship are nearly the end after so many efforts to keep it.
Now, i've hear in the past during my application for PR as common-law, that we must sustain a true cohabit for several years, and in case we don't i (as PR) may lose my status as PR.

Is that correct? is there sort of limitation that if we break now i may lose my PR?

I'm PR since April 2020 and not yet applied for Citizenship (planning to apply somewhere next year)
 
There is currently no such rule. You are safe as a PR as long as you didn't misrepresent yourself during the PR application and when you landed as a PR. (You were still in common law relationship with your partner at that point.)

Agreed. Condition: 51, which required couples to live together for 2 years after PR, was repealed in 2017. Even if it had not been repealed, you have already reached the 2 years.
