No documents are necessary to register as a domestic partner. Evidence of joint bank accounts, shared utility bills, etc. are not necessary to register as domestic partners. The couple must simply attest that they share a common residence and are jointly responsible for basic living expenses.

Extending benefits to registered couples requires the ability to verify the existence of the domestic partnership.
