How long have you been together and can you prove it. That's what matters. If you're not married you can still get a visa for a partner if you are the one studying abroad. Call the Canadian embassy, im sure they're nice 😉

Oh wow that's amazing!!

Follow up question: Would my bf be able to find full time employment? What counts as a proof? That's amazing news! Thank you for your reply

I hope this still applies! My sister went thru this about 6 years ago. So typically you'll have to have been together for a significant amount of time (nothing crazy but not like 1 year either). I know my sis and her bf were 7 years strong at the time. For proof of relationship they used pictures, email exchanges, bills (he owns a house and she helped with electrical and water so her name was on the statements). Thay also worked together so they asked their work to write a notarized letter. If they still allow this -which i really hope for your sake they do (sorry if i got your hopes up for nothing) - they will tell you what works as "documentation" of your relationship. I really think your best bet is contacting the consulate.

Oh and as far as him working there it will depend on the visa they give him.

Thank you very much, I will contact them soon. It was extremely helpful to get your help. Do you know I'd they had a line dedicated to this type of enquiries?

Also, just thinking about it...if you cant get your visas "together" see if he cant just get one seperately. I honestly would just do whatever is easiest and they will let you know what your options are. There is all the clntact info youll need on the website.
