Hi everyone, just took my citizenship interview and test this morning. And just now, I received via email the approval of Aus citizenship!

Salamat ulit sa lahat ng naitulong ng forum na ito, kayo ang migration agent ko sa true lang 😅 now time to prepare bonggang outfit para sa ceremony!

Wow congrats and savour the feeling hanggang sa citizenship ceremony nyo. Afterwards apply kaagad ng OZ passport. It won't take a long time before it will arrive at your mailbox. Congrats once again.

Hi. Just wanted to ask for those anyone na may experience na sa ganitong situation.

I am currently waiting for my 190 NSW grant. Would there be any impact sa citizenship if I move to another state right after the grant to be with my relatives?

When I read the state nomination approval, it says there na I am required to commit for 2 years.

Any thoughts on this?

In my friend’s case, he wrote to Immigration-Melbourne telling them he couldnt find a job here and he was offered a job in Perth.

Hi Everyone, question lang po if someone has also experience the same ng samen. Yung asawa ko nareceive na niya yung interview/exam schedule niya pero yung saken wla pa din pero sabay kami nagsend ng application and also nakalink dn kme para sa ceremony. Usually ba magkasabay ung interview pag magasawa or normal lang na minsan magkaiba ung date ng exam/interview. Salamat

Hi @ArchLab1

Hi all,

Passed our exam and got our citizenship approval last December 2022. Until now, we don’t have an invitation for oath taking. Immi website says 90% processing time is 8 months although I found another page specific to my council na 6 months lang processing, beyond that we belong to the 2% processing time na.

Anyone here with the same case? Thanks

lack14

@dyanisabelle so almost 10 months din from approval of citizenship to invitation for oath taking? Kami 6 months na halos from passing the exam/letter of approval so I guess we’re still good and nowhere near 😁

Hi @lack14

Grabe ang tagal din pla ng waiting para sa oath taking. Can I know anung council ka ?

lack14

@ArchLab1 moonee valley council. Hassle nga eh kc magbabayad ka pa returning resident visa if you’re travelling internationally.

Yun sa interview nyo, yup alam nila as long as you indicated in your application na you’re losing together and intending to take the same date of ceremony. Best of luck, sobrang dali ng exam.

Same feeling every time I log in here. Maalala mo all the challenges during the application, and now you’ll realise how far you’ve come. And you want to give back and help however you can dun sa mga nagsstart pa lang.

Sobrang tagal ko na pong hindi nakapagpost dito. This forum helped me DIY my tourist and PR visa. And now I'm feeling nostalgic kasi citizenship naman inaapplyan ko, the last step to get my ultimate goal of Australian citizenship 💕 sharing to you all my timeline so far.

Just read Our Common Bond - Testable PDF at least 2x, you'll be OK. https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/citizenship-subsite/files/our-common-bond-testable.pdf

If madami ka time, you can also download the free app Australian Citizenship (2023) - the one with the highest reviews
