Abstract: We discuss effects of Majorana CP violation in a model-independent way for a given phase structure of flavor neutrino masses. To be more predictive, we confine ourselves to models with $det(M_u)=0$, where $M_u$ is a flavor neutrino mass matrix, and to be consistent with observed results of the neutrino oscillation, the models are subject to an approximate $mu$-$au$ symmetry. There are two categories of approximately $mu$-$au$ symmetric models classified as (C1) yielding $si{n}^{2}2het{a}_{23}approx1$ and $si{n}^{2}het{a}_{13}ll1$ and (C2) yielding $si{n}^{2}2het{a}_{23}approx1$ and $Delta{m}_{o}do{t}^2/|Delta{m}_{atm}^2|ll1$, where $het{a}_{23(13)}$ stands for the mixing of massive neutrinos $u_2$ and $u_3$ ($u_1$ and $u_3$) and $Delta{m}_{o}do{t}^2$ ($Delta{m}_{atm}^2$) stands for the mass squared difference for atmospheric (solar) neutrinos. The Majorana phase can be large for the normal mass hierarchy and for the inverted mass hierarchy with $m_{1}approx-m_2$ only realized in (C1) while they are generically small for the inverted mass hierarchy with $m_{1}approx{m}_2$ in both (C1) and (C2). These results do not depend on a specific choice of phases in $M_u$ but hold true in any models with $det(M_u)=0$ because of the rephasing invariance.
