I am looking to try to live with my girlfriend who lives in Canada. I am a 19 year old US citizen. We were thinking of me going up for a 6 month visit, and then applying to extend my visa for another 6 months so that we can apply for common law.
What would be acceptable tell the people at the border? We'd be driving through and I'd only have a suitcase of clothes, my laptop, and my cat. If we were upfront about our plans would they deny me? I still live with my family and am not currently working or in school, so I don't know how I would be able to prove ties to the United States. I'd be able to show them a return plane ticket for after 6 months in case the extension is denied. Obviously I'd go back to the US if it got denied; I'm not looking to get into any trouble
. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
