Hello everyone! Question on citizenship application.

Can we use/upload the documents we used when we applied for PR?
Anyone from batch 2020 who's lodged their application?
Police clearance, do we have to request this for both in Australia and the country of origin?
Does my wife need to lodge separately or is it gonna be under my application?

I think you can if it is what is being asked of you to be submitted
Got in AU in Jan. 2020
I didn't submit an NBI clearance, they will do the clearance themselves from AU side
Yes, you just need to indicate that you want to attend the ceremony together in your application.

Hello All or @tmanito ! It's me again.

I'm currently filling the online form for the citizen application and have the following questions.

Family name and Given names field: Should I put my middle name in the given names field?

This is how my names are displayed on my passport.

Family Name: Asuncion

Given Names: Ted Francis

Middle Name: Macmang

Passport Country of Issue: My passport was issued in the Philippine consulate in Dubai - should I put UAE or Philippines?

Kung ano po yung nakalagay sa mga ID's nyo dito like driver's license. if hindi kasama middle name mo sa first name hindi mo din sya ilalagay para maging consistent.

Ako kasi ang ginawa ko kung ano yung nakalagay sa grant ko nung PR yun ang sinunod ko since nakalagay yung middle name ko sa first name pinapalitan ko yung IDs ko dito at pinagaya ko para maayos.

tmasuncion

@Hunter_08 Thanks for confirming. Yung IDs ko dito completo kasama middle name. I guess i'll have to include it. kahit sa PR grant ko kasama middle name. tapos buti na mention mo , chineck ko application ko doon naka lagay given names kasama pala middle name ko doon. nag agency kasi ako so nakalimutan ko na kung ano mga nilagay ko sa form. lol Maraming salamat po.

I think it varies. I’m in SA. Lodged application last May 2024. Received the appointment letter July, interview was last August.

Hi po, may nag-aapply po ba ng citizenship in SA right now from this group? Naglodge kasi kami ng application last August pero until now, no update yet. Was wondering if it’s taking longer for citizenship test schedules to be sent out (and if it depends on the state, kasi may nagcomment earlier na less than 2 months pa lang may schedule na).

Nag lodge din kami nung August 17, hanggang ngayon received pa din status sa immiaccount

Kumusta po, may nakacontact na sa inyo about sitting the test? Nakaka-3months na rin kami after mag-apply pero wala pa ring balita.

When filling-up forms, there will be instances that you need to use one document as evidence for different questions. Just provide what is being asked.

hmmm, reviewed all my answer and not sure why we have to provide these docs which is not applicable to us since our son is a biological child.

I cannot attach any evidence of child born through surrogacy (which is a court document) and evidence of adoption.

If you find it not applicable to you then don't attach any, imo. I have no idea why you were asked that question if you have a biological child. Possible that one of your previous answer might have triggered that specific question.
