defacto relationship. he will have to support under family law act.
her debt is not transferrable to him. she could possibly just declare herself bankrupt and it not affet him.

I dont yet know the job possibilities there so its not a certainty that i will move, its just something we are exploring because of family support and cheaper purchases of houses.
2)The truth is i dont even know if i will end up staying with this partner, if we can live together while caring for a baby as we havent really lived together for long. what precautions can i take if i do buy any property while being in an uncertain relationship.
Umm.....HELLO!!! It became defacto when you started living together and having a sexual relationship. It's not rocket science here.Terry, at what point did it become defacto if they were only friends with occasional benefits and yes carelessly caused a careless pregnancy.
she went to centrelink
she insisted on putting him as a partner on the form
she did not allow him to go to the centrelink meeting
so yes you are right. he just got a new job with a wage of perhaps 28 or 30 an hour which isnt huge but enough that they just found out that centrelink wont give her an allowance.
i doubt centrelink would see her as a friend if they have some sort of on and off sex involved.
The problem now though is about that if she could have had centrelink or some earnings and at least paid her debts then he would have supported her or tried to .
i 'll tell him to suggest she look at bankruptcy or free counselling places.thank you ausprop and wesminister.
It appears the subject of the thread has been dropped entirely, even by the original poster.
Doesn't anyone want to discuss the furniture ??
Here we go again....people trying to weasel out of paying their debt.
Can't people take any responsibility anymore?

http://guidesacts.fahcsia.gov.au/gu...guide-2.2/ssguide-2.2.5/ssguide-2.2.5.10.htmlPresence or absence of a sexual relationship
The presence of a sexual relationship does not by itself prove that a couple are living together in a de facto relationship, nor does its absence prove they are not. Inquiry in this area should be restricted to establishing whether there has been the existence of such a relationship and whether it is ongoing and exclusive. This aspect of the relationship is taken into account along with the degree of emotional support and other forms of interdependence and commitment.
this is a value judgement whioch should play no part in your financial planning. If the person can make more profit by declaring bankrupcty they should act as a rational profit focussed entity and take such action. Don't worry about citibank or whoever it is - their rates are loaded to cover such risk and they are just profit maximising entities themselves... they are big boys that knew the risks when they made the loans

Even so I think the context provided in this thread would throw the defacto status into question. Hardly assessed by Centrelink as a couple:Hobo
My comments were in response to this statement posted by the OP. They are living together in a sexual relationship, AND they have been assessed by Centrelink as a couple AND he admits it here.
she went to centrelink
she insisted on putting him as a partner on the form
she did not allow him to go to the centrelink meeting
i had a very big shock and bad feeling when i heard suddenly she was putting him as a partner when in fact that was not the case
she was a friend an on and off friend
never a girlfriend
Even so I think the context provided in this thread would throw the defacto status into question. Hardly assessed by Centrelink as a couple:
Use of the word partner in the previous post was probably just the easiest way of putting it without the whole story which has now come out.

It is not always citibank or whoever who lose.
We all pay when people milk the system.
That is beside the point.
If you make an agreement to pay, you pay.
