Subject: Sponsored common-law in Canada
  My situation is that I came into Canada early 2002 to be with my fiance, I overstayed my visitors visa until we both visited my homecountry of Sweden in late 2005. I had no problems getting back into Canada and we want to chug through immigrationprocess, with my fiance sponsoring me, so we can get on with our lives properly. I am kind of curious what our chances would be considering my visitorsvisa has expired again.
I would have no trouble proving that our relationship is genuine, and I have an offer of employment.
My concern is that I am technically living here illegally and would have to state that on the forms.
I would like to avoid having to leave the country.

Does anyone have any thoughts or advice on my situation?

Yes - check CIC under ´sponsor my family´ and you will see that you can apply to restore your status here in Canada at a cost of around $250. Easy!

Martin,
if all else fail, I noted that when I leave from Vancouver Airport there is no immigration checks, no stamping of the passport, you leave the country without immigration knowing!

"." - Thanks, I will check it out!

ang - That is interesting, because Vancouver airport is the only airport I have entered and exited and now that I think of it I don´t remember my passport being examined by any Immigration officers.
It might be worth noting that I had a new passport coming into the country the second time.

Mr. Lindstrom.

If you are considering making a false declaration on your application for permanent residence to Canada, I would highly suggest that you not post your full name, nationality, and intended city of departure on a public forum... Further, how is it that you can claim common-law when you are not "residing" with your partner (visitors to Canada do not reside in Canada - they reside elsewhere)???

Food for thought.
