Why don't near as many people want to get married nowadays? The prenup situation?
If I get married it will affect my SSI which me and my boyfriend still need me to get to help cover bills. So basically we can't afford to do that.
But if that changes we might go sign a marrige certificate or whatever you do when you don't want to have a wedding ceremony as neither of us are interested in that.
So yeah basically if you are on SSI you'll be financially penalized for getting married that is why a lot of disable people don't want to get married.
Also, defacto relationships are legally binding after 2 years, over here in any case.
