"How long do people have to live together to have a common law marriage"
*** There isn't a specific time requirement (after all, we are talking about Alabama!! :) )

The requirements for a common-law marriage in Alabama are:
(1) Legal capacity (age, single, etc.)
(2) an agreement to be husband and wife; and
(3) consummation of the marital relationship.
