defacto visa/ statement of support/ eligible for centrelink?
If you have sponsored someone on a defacto visa are you eligible for unemployment or any other benefits from centrelink?
I know the statement of support with the application was signed and evidence on how you were not going to be a drain on the Australian welfare system. Is this going to be on-file at centrelink? Is it legally binding or going to be held against the final PR visa?
Thanks for any advice.

Some benefits may be payable in certain circumstances. Best if you checked out centrelink's website.
