The claim has to be because you moved 40km closer to a NEW job or to attend full-time school. So only the person who got a new job can claim the expenses against the income from the new job. If one f you didn't change his/her job then you won't be qualified for the deduction anyway. Only those who got a new job can claim the moving expenses.

Yes, because at that time you were still in the common-law relationship > you can claim the full amount of moving expenses regardless of who paid it > because if it wasn't for your new job, you and your partner wouldn't have moved.
Splitting the proceeds because of a breakdown in the relationship will not affect your claim for the moving expenses. On papers, make sure that the date of the breakdown of the relationship occurred after the date of the actual move.

What if we both got new jobs since we moved countries. Can we both choose how much we each claim from the total to optimize the marginal savings?
Yes, you can both claim moving expenses but if you each claim them, please make sure you are not claiming the same expenses twice. Keep all information and receipts for the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) to review if needed.
For more information please see the CRA Moving expenses: Expenses you can deduct.
