请教： 男女双方的关系中的Common in-law 需办某种手续才可认可呢，还是双方自已认为是就可以了？

Common-law partner
You are a common-law partner—either of opposite sex or same-sex—if you have been living with your sponsor in a conjugal relationship for at least one year. The year of living together must be a continuous 12-month period and cannot be intermittent periods that add up to one year. However, you are allowed temporary absences for short periods of time for business travel or family reasons.
You will have to provide documents that prove that you and your common-law partner have combined your affairs and have set up your household together in one home. This could include:
joint bank accounts or credit cards;
joint ownership of a home;
joint residential leases;
joint rental receipts;
joint utilities (electricity, gas, telephone);
joint management of household expenses;
proof of joint purchases, especially for household items; or
correspondence addressed to either person or both people at the same address
