Canadian federal law does not have \"common law marriage\", but various federal laws include \"common law status,\" which automatically takes effect once two people have lived together for two years and thus partners may be eligible for various government benefits of married spouses based upon their relationship with the individual who is eligible for some type of family based benefit. As family law varies between provinces, there are differences between the provinces regarding the recognition of common law marriage.
