In this episode of ‘Trabaho, Visa atbp.’, Jay Dungog shared the process of applying same-sex partner as a dependent in an Australian student visa application and why it mattered.
Key Points
- The Philippines has yet to recognise same-sex marriage or relationships.
- The same-sex partnership has been recognised in Australia, and as the application is in the country, so has the jurisdiction of visa rules.
- Applicants need to provide evidence and documents to prove a de facto relationship.
'Trabaho, Visa, atbp.' is a podcast series that features issues and information about migration to Australia every Thursday on SBS Filipino.
Registered Migration Agent Edmund Galvez explained how a de facto relationship can be approved in a visa application.
