Hi all,

I am applying under family class sponsorship within Canada (common-law). I was wondering Is there any format I have to use for letters from close friends and family.
Please suggest

You probably don't want every letter to sound as if it was dictated by you. The key elements are how long they've known you (as a couple) and under what circumstances - work friend, old friend - and how happy they are for you, having found the one in 7 billion ideal soul mate (or words to that effect).

Does the letter from landlord will work if I don’t have lease. Is this needs to be notarized ?

If you are married then he is your spouse and not your common law.
