HELP ! Can this be considered misrepresentation ?

[BuminKhan]

Hi everybody,

I might be freaking out for no reason so please help me. Just few days ago, I finally submitted my cec pr application with my common-law partner as my dependent.

Both I and my common-law partner are on our post graduate work-permit that we obtained on our own merits. I got my pgwp before we even moved in together.

At the time when my partner submitted his application for his pgwp, we were not even anywhere close to living together for a year, therefore were single, hence he applied as single as he should have. Although I just realized that the issue date of my common-law partner's pgwp is about 4 weeks after we completed our 1 year of cohabitation.

If IRCC was to dig in, could they possibly consider this as a misrepresentation since we did not report a change in marital status to common-law before pwgp was issued keeping in mind that declaring common-law would make no difference to our case as I had my pgwp already ?

I am freaking out a little. We are a same-sex couple from not very liberal countries, we're looking to a bright future in Canada where we can raise a family. Such issue would genuinely destroy our lives.

You are freaking out for no reason. The situation when you applied is what's important, not when the PGWP was issued. You are under no obligation to report a change in marital status for a PGWP application. Relax. You are fine.

Thank you so much for your reply
