preparing na kami for citizenship application. Tanong lang, hindi ba talaga nakaka count yung mga short-holidays/trip lang like 1-20 days outside of Australia? Kasi nung ginamit ko ang residence calculator, pwede na daw kaming mag apply sa araw mismo ng 189 grant namin. Kahit nilagay ko naman yung holiday namin sa Pinas at another Asian country.

Salamat po sa mga sasagot.

As far as I know... if hindi equal to or more than 12 months in cumulative total yung mga overseas trips.. hindi sya makaka-apekto sa eligibility.

I came here Feb 2016 and lodged my Citizenship application Feb2020... in that period dami ko din trips abroad... mga almost 12 months in total..

Although still waiting for update sa application...

Salamat! Oo nga same din kayo nung sinabi sa POMSINOZ! Mukang di nga nakakaapekto Salamat talaga!

If nag stay na within Australia after ng PR, wala na police clearance from any country including home country and other countries na natirhan bago magka PR?

yes, ako hininingan kahit ndi ako nagstay sa SG ng more than 90 days. via their system pa lang to, kase un sa dulo ng lodgment, ang landing page ay andun un mga required docs. at andun un COC, kung may time ka naman ayusin, why not. pero kung may couple of weeks to spare ka naman, offshore application pede naman ayusin.

In my case hindi lumabas yung file upload link for PCC, kahit dineclare ko naman na more almost 12 months ako sa Thailand sa appplication ko... bakit kaya?

i read this from other forum..

"We could also ask you to provide a certificate in other circumstances. "

departmental case officers had the discretions to request for overseas PCC from any country the applicant had visited if they considered " necessary ", even though all the 3 conditions above are not met

Do I need an overseas penal clearance certificate
Requirements for applications for Australian citizenship (Conferral, General eligibility or Other situations)
The following requirements apply to the period of time you have held a permanent Australian visa.

You need an overseas penal clearance certificate if:

you lived or travelled overseas since the age of 18 years, and
the total time you spent overseas adds up to 12 months or more, and
the total time you spent in one country adds up to 90 days or more.
If this applies to you, provide an overseas penal clearance certificate from each country where you spent a total of 90 days or more in.

We could also ask you to provide a certificate in other circumstances.

We have to see the original overseas police clearance and we will keep certified copies with your application.

parang yung sakin walang lumabas na ganyang file upload link for PCC..

baka may algorithm sila of some sort kung anong application magkakaron ng ganyan requirement

auauoioi

disregard pervious comment, may next steps pa pala yan

cyborg5

Kailangan ba original papers dalhin during citizenship interview/exam sakali? Like original nso birth certificate? Original nbi clearance? Etc? Original din ba proof address like utilities? Kasi pdf lang natatanggap di ba?

thanks wizard, sana nga, gusto ko na rin sana lumipat sa mura, pero iniiisip ko baka tumagal pa

wizardofOz

Sa mga nag undergo na ng Citizenship interview.. may naka-experience ba sa inyo na may hininging additional documents na wala naman dun sa 'list of docs to bring' and 'docs submitted during your application'?

di pa rin kasi ako makatulog eh.. baka hingan ako ng Thai PCC.. which is hindi hiningi when I lodged my application..... di kasi ako makakuha now ng PCC dahil mahirap ang logistics now dahil sa pandemic...

Although sabi naman nung isang friend ko... if may document na kailangan sayo yung Immi.. dapat hiningi na nila before ka pa in-invite for interview/exam...
