    Hello everyone!

    They key thing about cover letters for this category is to "tell the story" of your relationship. You will want to state clearly the category under which you are applying and list the evidence you have provided. The key factor is that story. For example "X and I met in z month/year while I was on holiday in New Zealand (or whatever). X followed me back to my own country and we moved in together in x month/year. We have now lived together etc etc. I am sure you get the idea. Good luck!

    Yes got your point. I'm no good at story telling ;-) lol
    Just curious to know how long the cover letter should be?

    It needs to be as long as is necessary to "paint the picture". My cover letters vary from 1 to 3 sides, plus a table listing contents in the order they are enclosed.
