Western Australian Consolidated Acts (1) 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.
(2) If the
Commissioner is satisfied at the time of deciding an application for a first
home owner grant that —
(a) an
applicant is married but is living apart from the person to whom the applicant
is married; and
(b) 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.
