Hey folks, I am currently residing in The documents were: 1. .An official letter from the school I worked for from June 1st, 2007 - December 23, 2008 signed by the schools director of foreign affairs with the official stamp. The letter states that my partner and I lived together there and the school paid for all living expences. 2. A letter from the current school I work at stating that me and my partner do live together and have so since April 6, 2009. Also states all living expenses are paid by the school for me and my partner as the contract states. It also states that I intend to leave in February when the contract expires. 3. An official stamped letter statement from the police station (from the area of the 1st school I worked at) stating that me and my partner lived together from June 15th, 2007 - December 23, 2008. 4. An official stamped letter from the police station (from the area of the school I am working at now ) stating that me annd my partner lived together from April 6, 2009 - to present date (signed date: november 27, 2009) and that living expences are covered by the school for both me and my partner I wanted to have all these documents notarized. I am aware that it is not necessary but I am concerned as we lack in joint financial proof ( there are no joint bank accounts, credit accounts in The notary in
Now I know enough to know that we must do everything in our power to prove our relationship is genuine, not just our “marriage relationship” but how our entire relationship developed etc. I am also trying to take their thoughts with a grain of salt as I have had many run ins before with immigration “consultants” here before who didn’t even know what common-law was ( when we were thinking of applying as common-law before we got married) . The truth is we did live together as many couples do before marriage. But now I am not sure if these letters will hurt or help our case. Any insight would be much appreciated. |

I wouldn't worry about them being notarized. And while you don't have to include this for proof of common law, I can't see where it would hurt your case any to include those.
I believe it would help further show immigration that you were together for a good while before marriage and that marriage for you as a couple was a gradual choice and not based on immigration. It will also him them be confident in that you both know each other's living style etc. Plus it would also show that you are socially recongnized as a couple and show yourselves to the world as a couple even before marriage. Of course my information isn't definite as I am not a legal authority or immigration officer but this is my opinion on the situation. |
