7 Term used: spouse
A person is the spouse of an applicant for a first home owner grant if, on the commencement date of the transaction to which the application relates, the person is married to the applicant.
If the Commissioner is satisfied at the time of deciding an application for a first home owner grant that —
an applicant is married but is living apart from the person to whom the applicant is married; and
the applicant and that person have no intention of again living together as a couple,
the person to whom the applicant is married is taken not to be the applicant’s spouse.
