Australia adds 3rd gender option to passports!
A tribunal in Australia has created the country’s first legally recognized same-sex married couple and overturned a government decision about a transwoman’s new passport.
Grace Abrams was refused a female passport by the Foreign Affairs department despite having undergone transition between 2001 and 2005.
She married her partner Fiona Power while still transitioning, and the authorities said that in order to get a new birth certificate and therefore a passport identifying her as female, she would have to divorce.
Ms Abrams went to the Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT) arguing that a birth certificate was required to prove that an applicant for a passport is an Australian citizen, and that other documents verify her gender.
The tribunal agreed, and ordered that she be issued with an Australian passport identifying her as female, thus also recognizing her same-sex marriage.
