@rambuu : yup , actually i already know about CFO and that it is a Philippine requirement. Atm, im here in oz, and it would cost a fortune to call the office. Google is my bestfriend too , what i just meant with my enquiry if someone had the experience na kinasal dito sa oz that didnt have to Report their marriage and had obtained the sticker. ..but it doesnt mean that i will stop searching for the answer..anyway thanks for your " two cents" . God bless..
