Australian Citizenship Act 2007 Residence Requirements
To satisfy the residence requirements you must have:
*4 years lawful residence in Australia. This period must include 12 months as a permanent resident immediately before making an application for Australian citizenship
and
*absences from Australia of no more than 12 months in total in the 4 years prior to application, including not more than 90 days in the 12 months immediately prior to application.
Lawful residence means residence in Australia on a temporary or permanent visa.

pag expired na ang PR visa mo, just don't go out of Australia para ma-retain ang status mo. you can either apply for a Resident Return Visa (RRV) or apply for citizenship.</blockquote>
I see. Ito po kasi plan ko. September 2017 ang end ng PR ko. Mag-stay na kami for good sa Australia starting March 2014. So 3.5 years po kami as Permanent Resident.
Tapos antay pa kami ng mga 1 year pa before mag apply ng citizenship. OK po ba ang plan na ito?
