New de facto decision

Following a recent Full Federal Court decision, living together is now not a criterion needed to satisfy the definition of de facto partner in the Migration Act.

 

i wonder how this affects the minimum time needed before couples can apply for the partner visa?

Probably what i meant to say was will the reduced time also affect the 3 year defacto status regarding qualifying for permanent 100 visa?

That would be unaffected as the legislation states the 100 visa can only be granted 2 years after the 309 has been applied for.

Not in my bf's case...he got his subclass 100 straight away xx

 

Yes, i thought they might lower the 3 year living together down to 2.5 years as theyve already established a defacto committment at 6 months instead of 12. Thus allowing the 100 to be granted straight away.
