    Totoo po ba na pwedeng mag apply ng citizenship kahit expired na ang passport mo? May kakilala po kasi ako na expired ang passport pero ayos naman. I am about to apply na kaso expired na passport ko and July pa ang renewal dito sa WA. Thanks po sa sasagot

    Hi guys. been awhile na binista ko ang website na ito. naging busy sa life. Anyhoo, my sister's family is already scheduled to apply for their citizenship and namention niya yung expiry ng visa nila. napaisip ako at chineck din yung visa namin. So below are our timeline:

    IED: September 17, 2014
    Big move ko: July 26,2015
    Big move ni hubby: September 9, 2015
    Visa expiry: July 07, 2019

    Now my question, ang 4 year residency ko ba will be completed on July 2019 or July 2018? since di naman ako umabot ng 12 months away from Oz.

    Another question, si hubby the same din ba, 2018 ba or 2019?

    if di namin nasatisfy yung 4-year residency we need to apply for an extension or renewal ng PR visa until a few months na masatisfy namin yung requirement on 2019? I'm confused. sana may sasagot. thanks!

    For you is Sept 17, 2018 IF AND ONLY IF your total days aways from Australia since IED will not total into 1 year - this is inclusive of bakasyon OUTSIDE Australia after the big move.

    For Hubby is Sept 17, 2018 IF AND ONLY IF his total days aways from Australia since IED will not total into 1 year - this is inclusive of bakasyon OUTSIDE Australia after the big move.

    Take note that since sinagad ni hubby mo na almost one year gap between IED and big move, parang more or less wala na sya allowance for going out on a vacation... Say pupunta kayo Pinas for 2 wks sometime this year, the 4 yr residency for him will become Sept 9 2020.

    i don't think a valid passport is a requirement for citizenship... You can always prove your identity via driver's license.

    Hi @TasBurrfoot,

    Anu ano mga documents yung sinubmit mo for Citizenship?

    May nakalagay doon nabasa ko na Identity Declaration.
    Ung picture din, need i sign ng someone na kilala ka for at least a year and dapat Aussie Citizen din. Tama ba to?

    Question sa "Evidence of first arrival in Australia" section ng application... as PR ba o very first arrival?

    Nag tourist visa kasi ako nung 2011 but 2013 yung first arrival as PR. Yung passport details ko ba nung 2011 ang ilalagay ko o yung first arrival as PR? magkaibang passport kasi yun.

    Thanks in advance!

    Kung naulit na po itong tanong na to, please pakibigay na lang po sakin yung link. Thanks
