It might be better if you repost this in the Family Class section of this forum for better responses.

Unless you are officially divorced, rather than separated, you can not marry anyone else.

You can not marry him if you are not divorced but if you have lived together for at least 12 months, you can sponsor him for PR as your common law partner.

However, if you were sponsored yourself by your ex husband, you can not sponsor a new partner until 5 years have passed since you became PR.

After your divorce you are free to get married. Nothing illegal about having a boyfriend. You can live with your boyfriend if you want.
