KE KOMO ANA I KA UNION CIVIL MA HAWAI’I:
Eia ke ano o ka hana, ka mea a me ka hana!

I ka manawa hea e hoʻokō ai nā kuleana a me nā kuleana no nā hoa hui kīwila?

Ua paʻa ke kānāwai uniona kīwila o Hawaiʻi i ka lā 1 o Ianuali, 2012, a e loaʻa i nā hoa uniona kīwila ke ʻano holoʻokoʻa o nā kuleana a me nā kuleana kānāwai o ka mokuʻāina ke komo lākou i loko o kā lākou hui kīwila. E pili nā kuleana a me nā kuleana e pili ana i nā kānāwai ʻauhau mokuʻāina o Hawaiʻi i nā makahiki ʻauhau e hoʻomaka ana ma hope o ka lā 31 o Dekemaba, 2011.

ʻO wai ka mea hiki ke komo i kahi hui kīwila?

Hiki i nā kāne hoʻokahi a i ʻole nā ​​kāne like ʻole ke komo i kahi uniona kīwila inā:

● He 18 mau makahiki ma lalo o nā hoa ʻelua;
● ʻAʻole hoʻi he hoa i loko o kahi hui kīwila ʻē aʻe, he hoa male ma ka male ʻana, a i ʻole ma kahi pilina pili pono;
● ʻAʻole pili pili nā hoa pili; a
● Ua ʻae kēlā kanaka i kahi hoa ma lalo o ka mākaʻikaʻi ʻana o kahi conservator a kahu paha.

E ʻike ʻia anei ka male ʻana o ka kāne hoʻokahi, ka hui kīwila, a i ʻole ka hui ʻāina i kākau inoa ʻia mai kekahi mokuʻāina ʻē ma ke ʻano he hui kivila ma Hawaiʻi?

Ua ʻōlelo ke kānāwai e mālama ʻia nā hoa male "nā uniona āpau" i nā mana ʻē aʻe i ʻike ʻole ʻia ʻo ka male ʻana ma Hawaiʻi ma ke ʻano he uniona kīwila, ʻoiai ua komo pono ia mau uniona, ua hoʻokō ka kāne i nā koi no ka Hawaiʻi. hui kīwila, a hiki ke palapala ʻia ka hui. No ka laʻana, inā komo ka male kāne like i ka male kūpono ma Massachusetts, a hoʻokō i nā koi uniona kivila o Hawaiʻi, a hiki iā ia ke palapala i kā lāua male ʻana, e ʻike ʻia lāua he mau hoa hui uniona ma Hawaiʻi.

No ka mea e ulu mau ana ke kānāwai, manaʻolana mākou i ke alakaʻi hou aʻe i ka wā e hiki mai ana e pili ana i nā uniona ma waho o ka mokuʻāina i ʻike ʻia he uniona kīwila ma Hawaiʻi. Inā kānalua, e nīnau i kahi loio.

Pehea e komo ai nā kāne i kahi hui kīwila?

E hoʻolako ka 'Oihana Ola i kahi ʻōnaehana hoʻopaʻa inoa pūnaewele ma hope o ke aumoe ma Ianuali 1, 2012. Ua hoʻomākaukau pū ka ʻoihana i kahi ʻaoʻao ʻike me nā kuhikuhi kikoʻī e pili ana i ka loaʻa ʻana o kāu laikini. No ka nānā ʻana i kēia pūnaewele, kaomi ma aneʻi.
Pono nā kāne e loaʻa i kahi laikini mai kahi ʻelele uniona kīwila ʻae ʻia. Pono ka ʻōnaehana noi pūnaewele e hāʻawi i nā mea noi i kahi papa inoa o nā ʻelele i hoʻopaʻa inoa ʻia. I loko o 30 mau lā ma hope o ka hoʻopuka ʻia ʻana o ka laikini, pono ka luna kānāwai, ka luna kānāwai i hoʻomaha a i ʻole ke kahuna pule e hoʻolauleʻa i ka hui ʻana o nā kāne.

'Ōlelo Aʻo: Inā makemake kekahi kāne kāne hoʻokahi i hoʻopaʻa inoa ma ke ʻano he poʻe kōkua pānaʻi e komo i kahi uniona kīwila o Hawaiʻi, a i ʻole e ʻike ʻia kahi uniona ma waho o ka mokuʻāina ma ke ʻano he uniona kīwila ma Hawaiʻi, pono lākou e hoʻopau mua i kā lākou mea kōkua pānaʻi Hawaiʻi. pilina. Inā ua hoʻopau ʻia i loko o 30 mau lā ma hope o ka noi ʻana no ka laikini uniona kīwila, pono e hōʻike ʻia ka hōʻoia o ka hoʻopau ʻana i kahi ʻelele uniona kīwila ʻae ʻia.

Pehea e hoʻopau ai nā kāne i ko lākou pilina pili pili Hawaiʻi?

I kēia manawa, pono e hoʻopau ʻia kahi pilina pili ʻana ma ka leka uila. He mea nui e hoʻomaopopo ʻaʻole hoʻopau ka hoʻopau ʻana i ka leka uila ma kāu palapala Hōʻike Hoʻopau. Pono ka luna olakino o ka moku'āina e kau inoa i kahi palapala hoʻopau ma mua o ka pau ʻana o ke kūlana pili.

No ke kōkua ʻana i ka hōʻemi ʻana i ka ʻokoʻa o nā pale ma waena o ka hoʻopau ʻana i ka pilina o ka poʻe pōmaikaʻi a me ke komo ʻana i kahi uniona kīwila, ke hāʻawi nei ke keʻena ʻo Honolulu o ke Keʻena Ola i ke koho kelepona a leka uila paha no ka lawe ʻana i ka palapala hōʻoia no ka hoʻopau ʻana. Hōʻike ʻia kēia mau koho ma lalo o ka palapala Hōʻike o ka Hoʻopau.

Loaʻa nā alakaʻi mai ke Keʻena Ola Ola o Hawaiʻi no ka hoʻopau ʻana i kāu Reciprocal Beneficiary Relationship (RB).
