pwede mo syang i-add sa EOI mo at eventually isama mo sya sa visa lodging. ang biggest challenge lang ay yung pagpapatunay na De Facto mo sya.
eto yung link for complete details:
https://www.homeaffairs.gov.au/about/corporate/information/fact-sheets/35relationship
dyan madalas nagkakaroon ng delay ang mga may de facto/partner lalo na kung bago-bago palang ang relationship.
if im in your shoes, kung sure ka ng sya ang magiging asawa mo, i-add mo sa EOI, worth it ilaban yan dahil sya na talaga eh... PERO kung hindi ka pa sure sakanya, maybe think about it kung isasama mo pa sya dahil possible maka-delay to sa visa application mo lalo na kung hindi mo masatisfy si CO lalo na sa mga evidences.
***and besides...... madaming magagandang Australiana dun eh

in short, straight forward ang requirements kapag married couples kaysa sa defacto/enagaged.

regardless na defacto or married, same lang ang proof of evidence niyan minus the marriage certificate sa defacto. financial, emotional, physical aspect tinitingnan tlga nila.

nakita ko din yung case ni panda pero may ilan din tyung mga members na 6 months palang ang wedding pero wala namang CO contact. nakay CO lang din siguro tlaga ang decision.
madalas na nakikita kong may problema nito ay Indian nationals, baka na-overlooked lang yung kay panda.

May hinihingi doon na “Member of Family Unit, Evidence of”, iba pa doon sa evidence for defacto partnership. Any idea ano difference nito or anong docs dapat ilagay dito?
Meron kami tag isang stat dec, joint bank account statement. Barangay and homeowners na certificate saying nakatira kami sa same house. Affidavit from my mom saying nakaira kami as a couple sa bahay nila since may 2015. Tapos may isang pinoy na witness sa relationship (stat dec), isang form 888 na stat dec (oz citizen), tapos yung photos and travel together.
Uulitin ko lang kaya lahat? Or sa evidence of family unit kahit stat dec lang namin individually about the defacto partnership? Hoping for your advise! Til oct 10 kami maglolodge. Yun na lang kulang atsaka passport photo na kailangan pala. Thank you sa makakatulong

Main applicant (ikaw) = Php157,500
Spouse = Php78,700
3 anak below 18yr-old = Php 118,500
Dati po hindi sila mahigpit regarding functional english ng partner, ok lang na certicate. Ngayon po, mostly lahat ng case office hinahanap talaga ang either IELTS or PTE result. Pero it’s your call po kung ano po decision niyo. But to for my advise, and for less stress and hassle, mag take na lang si partner ng english exam. Aminimum of 4.5 score lang naman in each band ang kailangan ni partner.

Enough na po ba ang marriage certificate as proof of relationship?
Mejo naguluhan po ako nung nabasa ko to sa site ng DHA.
For both married and de facto applicants you must provide evidence that you are in a genuine and continuing relationship. Evidence can include but is not limited to:
joint bank account statements
billing accounts in joint names
joint leases or mortgages
documents that show your partner has lived at the same address as you
Salamat po sa sasagot.
God is good all the time!
