Basically you reside and appear to the community as a married couple. This means you jointly own property, file joint taxes, have children born of the marriage hold their father's name, etc. You also must demonstrate that you have no plans to legally marry. Please be advised, the act of living together does not constitute a "common law" marriage, and such a situation can be challenged by any and all interested parties. For example if the couple decide to part and they cannot agree on property or child issues, it will result in a difficult and often expensive matter.
