Same sex De Facto Visa

hersheythegreathersheythegreat PhilippinesPosts: 51Member
Good day, ask ko lang po if there's anyone here who's in a same sex relationship that applied for a de facto visa. My girlfriend and I have been living together for more than a year now. Ang problem lang is that hindi kami legal sa side ng parents ko. However, legal naman po kami sa side niya. She's an interior designer, and ako naman po ay mag aaral ng Masters in Hospitality Management. Thank you!

    @hersheythegreat you have to demonstrate that you are on a defacto relationship for minimum of 12months before applying for visa. If you are living together then you can provide bills address to both your names or rental agreements etcetera. :)

    as long as ma-satisfy mo to, pwede kayong mag apply for de facto:

    walang makakapag-sabi nyan. ang nababasa ko lang, the more proofs = the better chances na ma-convince nyo si CO.

    yung binigay ko na link dun sa previous post, nandun na lahat ng details. kung confident kayo na mapo-provide nyo yun sa visa lodging, go ahead, kung hindi naman, mag-usap kayo ni partner kung anung mas ok na next step dahil future nyong dalawa ang naka-salalay dyan.

    ang pinaka-possible ay madelay ang student visa approval mo or worst case, ma-deny ang application mo.

    kaya ko prinovide yung official link para makita nyo ang mga requirements. kung hindi pa kayo confident na maiprovide yan, i suggest na check kung pwede syang mag-apply on her own visa.

    baka may opening for interior designer diba? atlis, separate ang application nyo at lesser worries yun sayo dahil talagang mag-aaral ka naman ng masters eh. kung confident naman kayo na maiproprovide nyo yan, go ahead, you can include her on your application.

    @patotoy Thank you :) Feel naman po namin na kaya namin maprovide yun. Kaso nga lang we need to make sure na hindi po maapektuhan yung student visa ko. She tried applying for jobs po kaso hindi lang po sinuswerte.

    ok, kayo naman ang makaka-timbang nyan kung maproprovide nyo o hindi. basta follow the official list of requirement from DoHA, you can't go wrong. Godbless!

    Ang advice po ng iba, apply muna student pag okay na yung visa. Tsaka mag apply ng subclass para sa dependent. Para sure. Pero make sure po na idedeclare sa application ni student na in a de facto siya, and ilalagay po si de facto partner sa application.

    Question lang po regarding sa mga notarized docs na isusubmit.

    Kasama kasi sana sa isusubmit namen ng partner ko is yung lease of contract 2016 siya kaso hindi siya notarized. Okay lang ba kung ngayon palang siya ipapanotaryo? Pati na rin sa deed of sale para maprove na may joint asset kame ng partner ko. Thank you po sa mga sasagot.

    @sir121212 as per my agent po (kokos) mas expensive daw if hiwalay si de facto and would require show money.

    @sir121212 I have the same issue din. yung contract of lease namin is for a year lang validity. Kaso hindi nanotarize yung mga past year. sabi ng landlord namin hindi na daw pwede ipanotaryo yun. yung recent daw na lease ang pwede inotarize. Pero I will try to consult yung magnnotaryo if pwede pa
