In this episode of ‘Trabaho, Visa atbp.’, Jay Dungog shared the process of applying same-sex partner as a dependent in an Australian student visa application and why it mattered.

Key Points
  • The Philippines has yet to recognise same-sex marriage or relationships.
  • The same-sex partnership has been recognised in Australia, and as the application is in the country, so has the jurisdiction of visa rules.
  • Applicants need to provide evidence and documents to prove a de facto relationship.
'Trabaho, Visa, atbp.' is a podcast series that features issues and information about migration to Australia every Thursday on SBS Filipino.
