^^ Just re posting given that i didn't get a reply. Really interested in knowing how applying with a de facto partner changes the game, e.g: time for decision etc.....

 

Hey PM1111 - I don't think it affects your application. You may be required bit more info of course, but it's nothing really far from someone who's married in paper.

 

Is your partner under the same 457 visa as you?

 

I'm on defacto relationship as well for the past 6 years, and on same 457 visa. It wasn't a problem 2 years ago, and it shouldn't be now. We've just accumulated more stuff to prove we're still together and going strong. :-)

 

My nomination has been in progress, but I'd expect to be approved end of this year only as it has been just 2 weeks now.

Thanks for your reply Bernadeli,

 

No I'm not on his 457 visa as we only just meet while he was already on it and I was on a student visa completing my studies, now he has put me on his 186 visa and his employer is sponsoring us both, I have tried t submit as much info and pictures etc as possible so hopefully ill be a straight forward process. But fingers crossed i guess. week 13 now so its getting close!

 

 

cheers
