I'd better get started! Thanks for your help. Hope I'll have enough docs to prove the relationship. So far, we have rent contract, bills in both our names, we'll maybe open a joint bank account, not sure it's really necessary as we can show transfer between our two bank accounts.
However, I'd have a few more questions:
- how do you write a doc to prove your relationship: level of commitment, financial, physical & emotional support... does it need to be really formal? Can I write it?
- who can make a statutory declaration that our relationship is genuine and continuing? An Australian, but should it be a lawyer or official person? Not a friend?
Thankfully, I still have 6 months on my WHV meaning 6 months to work on this partner visa!!
