Hi everyone,
I've looked through alot of these forums but think this is a fresh topic, so I'm hoping someone can help me!
I'm from the US and my partner is Australian - we're applying for the Defacto visa and submitting our app a week from Friday - October 8. (My visa expires the 9th). Our travel / living situation has been quite complicated but we've spent a great deal of the last couple months getting all the necessary paperwork, documents, statements, etc and are pretty confident that we have sufficient proof.
My concern is - we were speaking on the phone to a migration agent (we're doing the app ourselves, but were trying to set up a meeting to get everything checked) - and the first question that she asked was if I had put "de facto" as my relationship status for my application on my working holiday visa (which i'm on now)
At the time I put "single" because we weren't married or actually living together - My b/f had gone back to Australia - And the agent said the C.O. could claim we haven't officially been in a relationship this entire time because of that status, which is too late to change now.
Has anyone else had this issue? Do you think it will be enough to make my app invalid??
Any advice is greatly appreciated!
