Thank you for your reply. May I also clarify, do I really need to include my common law partner in the application? I read somewhere that the application should only be for one of the common law partners.

Thank you.

Thank you.

It is up to you to include your common law partner in the application. If you plan to take your common law partner along with you later, you may as well do it now, to avoid going through the hassle of the whole immigration process again.
