You're going ot have a hard time proving the relationship if you have not resided together as the de facto relationship is meant to be akin to a marriage. You'll need to produce LOTS of documentary proof that you have a real and durable relationship.LCOREY wrote:My boyfriend (Australian) and I (Irish) have started looking into the defacto visa in Ireland. We havent lived together as I started a 2 year masters in Ireland and as he had used his irish working visa, he is now on his UK working visa, so we have to live in seperate countries. We have been together for 2 & a half years and have had holidays together, numerous flights back & forth between the UK & Ireland etc. We can prove the relationship but as we havent lived together, I'm worried that may go against us. Also, he is wanting to go to college here but would have to pay international fees (v.expensive!)..I was told by a friend that if non-EU citizen paid tax for 3 years in the UK & Ireland, you are entitled to EU fee rate? Does anyone know anything about this? From what I have read, it seems that as long as you can prove that your relationship is legitimate & the non-EU person won't be a burden on the state, you should be OK. My boyfriend won't have any job lined up in Ireland, so I'm not sure where that leaves us. Any help would be much appreciated!
