Can Marriage License be used as a proof for De Facto?

RED

I am currently in a long distance relationship and I want to know if a marriage license would be a good proof to be in a de facto relationship? Thanks.

hi @RED, just my thoughts, if you're already married i think you should go with the Partner visa route - 309 instead of the De Facto (300).

RED

i don't have any australian visa yet and I'm about to lodge an EOI but I'm not sure if the marriage license would be good enough to include her in my application. We are not married yet and will be this coming december.

Hi. may kaibigan ako na same case sayu. Ang proof of de facto nya ay love letters, facebook relationship status,pictures together in different occasions, testimonies from friends. kaya sa tingin ko tatangapin ang marriage license. samahan mo na rin joint account, remittance at properties. Samahan mo na din ng wedding invitation para pruweba na ikakasal nga kayo. Hindi mahigpit ang case officer, any proof na magpapatibay sa claim ng applicant ,tinatanggap nila.

Yung friend ko ganyan din. Ang nangyari napaaga sila ng kasal hehe. But yeah you can use the license as proof. Pero check mo lang yung validity ng license kung hanggang kailan.

@DMAU2012 yung friend mo long distance din sila? its nice to hear na meron akong ka same case.tinanggap ba yung proof nila? wala kami joint account and properties pa e.

@cholle naku di na pwede mapaaga ang kasal. december na talaga. gusto ko na din talaga itry maglodge kaso baka kasi magkapangit na record pag hindi tinanggap yung proof namin.

thanks to both of you 🙂

yep, Japan at Cayman. Tinanggap ang proofs nila. Proof ng payment sa weddings is tingin ko pwede like booking ng venue, food, photovideo, lahat yan may contract na merng pangalan nyo, enough proof na may magaganap na wedding sa December. maglodge ka muna ng Eoi then wait for invitation, kakain din yan ng time. pag Visa lodgement pa naman hihingi ng proof of defacto.

@DMAU2012 Maraming salamat po 🙂

Talaga? Di sila gaanong strict sa proof ng de facto? What are other strong proofs pa for de facto? Thanks

DMAU2012

Hi @netzkeenet,

Hindi naman sa hindi mahigpit, tingin ko considerate sila sa lahat ng visa applicants. 😉

Sa mga nababasa ko dito sa forum , strong proof ang joint account and properties at yung marriage license tingin ko tatanggapin din.

Yung mga evidence na simple like love letters etc, supporting lang naman yun. Kaparehas pag wala kang payslips sa proof paid employment, pinapayagan ang SSS contributions, ITR at Employment contracts.

Cheers..

What will happen if di mag qualify yung partner mo as de facto? Ma dedeny ba yung buong visa app?

dapogi

@netzkeenet matatanggal sya sa visa application, but main applicant will proceed. in my case, since we were not confident of our de facto status (back then), we decided to include her as a non-migrating dependent so we did not pay the visa fee. when the decision was made, the visa was still approved but did not include her. kung nasama sya, sayang ang Php75K.

netzkeenet

@dapogi

Thank you sa reply. Ay ganon d na nila babalik ung fees for your partner?pero since you included her as non migrating ng pa medicAl din siya at police clearance? Nagpasa din kayo ng papers as de facto? So pano mo po siya isama sa australia niyan?

netzkeenet

I thought kasi na pag nde ng qualify ung partner mo ma deny din yung sa main applicant.

DMAU2012

@netzkeenet May possibility na ma deny or marefuse ang main applicant if kumuha to ng points sa partner skills galing sa ka de facto.

At any refusal ng visa ay forfeited ang bayad.

<blockquote rel="netzkeenet">I thought kasi na pag nde ng qualify ung partner mo ma deny din yung sa main applicant. </blockquote>

netzkeenet

@DMAU2012 pero kung hindi naman po mag claim ng partner points, if ever d sya mag qualify proceed parin ang main applicant?

DMAU2012

@netzkeenet, yes proceed si main applicant, once mayroon ng marriage certificate, madali na lang iadd yung wife/husband pag may PR visa na.

So pano po yung under parnter visa na siya yung 309? diba matagal processing non

dapogi

@netzkeenet yes mag 309 na lang. ang SLA ata is 12 months.

netzkeenet

@dapogi sorry what's SLA? since non migrating siya nag pass pa kayo nung proof for de facto like affidavits, pictures etc? 🙂
