I've been with my partner for over two years so perhaps it is wrong I have met people on my travels when looking into the defacto and met two couples who applied before they were together for 12 months and both got it. Perhaps they lied. Who knows? All my evidence I submitted has been for two years living together etc etc. Still nervous as it's been 6 months since applying and I've heard nothing. . . Stressful times

Me and my partner lodged out application for defacto 6 months ago and are still waiting. Our agent said that the time spent waiting counts towards evidence of being together so if you apply before the 12 months by the time they view your application you will have been together over the 12 months maybe even longer. Iv been told I may have to wait a further 6 months before we here anything so that time all adds up. Just keep every bit of post with your name, date and address. Get loads of joint things like joint car ownership, joint gym membership, joint bank account, joint phone bill even mobile (were joint with telstra) we also got our tax return as a joint tax return which states we are defacto which our agent was pleased with. Hope this helps

Thanks guys it's just the stress of waiting and all the things you waste time worrying about. Fingers crossed

Our defacto visa was applied for two days ago and i am feeling anxious already. Does anyone know what kind of interview questions I could be asked? And how long the process may take? Im British and Ive applied from Oz. Also I wear glasses does that matter during the medical (eye sight test)?? Cheers for any help
