    Hi guys, just want to share, got finally approved :) Took roughly 2 months after our exam date na nag email yung CO na may slight prob pala sa police cert. Waiting for the invite but not hopeful that it will be soon.. mukang mas mabilis pa sa Sydney. Thanks to everyone who replied to my previous inquiries during application.

    Hi, all.

    Has anybody tried na magfollow up regarding their application? Approved na kasi yung sa partner ko, and waiting na lang siya ng pledging ceremony, ako, wala pang pagbabago since lodging last February 2021. Sabay ko nilodge lahat. I know na special case yung sa amin, pero baka lang may idea yung iba. Here are some snippets:
    I lodged our citizenship application a few days after our 12-month as PR (kaso I had to be physically outside Australia na for a research fellowship), which I also indicated sa application.
    Obviously, I still have continuing ties as Australia kahit I'm outside now (my de-facto partner, the rent and bills under my name, insurances, etc) and I also have a current contract with a university sa Australia (per unpaid siya kasi adjunct researcher).
    If may idea kayo or alam how to follow up sa Immi, please do share. Salamat. :)

    Hi po! Hindi pa po ako tapos sa exam. Yun pa kasi sana gusto kung ifollow-up, may specific email address ba sila or through ImmiAccount lang din?

    @markier87 you can call their hotline to follow up. pero nabanggit mo na you are offshore now so paano ka makakaattend sa interview and test kung magkakaroon ka ng schedule? Also, I think they check for your residency during application so being physically absent in AU may affect that. Kung more than 3 months ka ng wala dito for the past 12 months baka mareject pa ang application mo.
