Domestic Partner Faq's
Oct. 13th, 2004 09:10 amI was looking at the DP page for the state and found some very interesting information. For you who registered with the City/County of San Francisco, this may be very important information for you and you should find out if you are registered with the state.
From http://www.ss.ca.gov/dpregistry/dp_faqs.htm#question7
My partner and I are registered as domestic partners with the city in which we reside. Do we have the same rights as partners registered with the State?
No. You must be registered with California's statewide registry in order to be eligible for the rights and responsibilities of domestic partnerships under California law. You may find registration forms online. After completing the form online, print, sign and have both partners' signatures notarized. You may hand carry the form and filing fee to any of the Secretary of State's offices, which are located in Sacramento, San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Diego, or Fresno, or mail it to the Sacramento office with the appropriate filing fee.
I thought of you Gary and Steve, and Greg and Eric when I read this.
