Hello po sa lahat... maki-ask na nga din ako dito as I have not seen any posts pa regarding my concern. But my apologies ahead if natanong na at na-overlooked ko lng.
I am debating kasi of whether or not to apply for an extension of my passport which is about to expire next month. Ka-lodged ko lang ng citizenship application 2 weeks ago and I ticked (in one of its questions) that I have no intention to travel outside within 12 months from lodging. But I realized lately na baka mag-travel nga ako and that, baka mahihirapan ako kung wala pa akong approval for citizenship + AU passport.
So my question is, may negative effects ba ang pag-apply ng extension ng passport while waiting sa citizenship application? Will this act be interpreted as "I am in doubt" pa of becoming an AU citizen? Should I update the immigration by attaching the extension approval to my immi-account? I reckon I can still do so since wala pa case officer na-assign (but pls correct me if mali ang info ko dito.)
Salamat ahead sa mga makakasagot and sa lahat na nagma-managed sa forum na ito. Very much appreciated talaga and tulong ninyo. God bless sa lahat...

Hi mga Pips!
I just passed my citizenship exam yesterday...I have a dilemma, my PR visa has expired and I'm planning to travel to the PHL this June 2022 (in 3months). I am not sure if I should start processing my Resident Return Visa or wait for my Citizenship Ceremony and then apply for a AUS Passport (urgent application is within 2-3 days).
Just want to check with those that have taken their citizenship pledge recently if how long was their turnaround time from passing the citizenship exam to pledge (ceremony)?
If I can get the citizenship pledge before June 2022, I find it a very costly exercise if renew my PR visa (RRV) too soon which is around $410, and then having to apply for an AUS passport soon which is around $308.
Any advise would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hi, during my citizenship interview recently, the interviewer asked if I had any plans to travel in the near future, so sabi ko na meron sa June 2022, then kinuha niya ang travel dates at may tinype siya sa computer na hindi ko alam. Pero after passing the citizenship exam, puede daw mag update sa citizenship application at maglagay ng travel dates, while application is being processed. I am not sure lang kung asan dun sa my immi application ilalagay yun. Makikibalita nalang ako sa iyo kung saan yun

Hi, Im about to lodge application for citizenship. medyo na-overwhelm ako sa dami ng requirements.
Ive read one of the docs needed is medical evidence of an enduring physical or mental incapacity from a specialist medical practitioner registered in Australia. May I know san kayo kumuha neto? And is this required for the kids na kasama sa application or just the adults? Im from Melbourne.

Hello everyone! Congrats to all those who already got their citizenship.
I'll be eligible to apply my citizenship on June 2022. Just a question on the documents to be submitted (apologies for not back-reading). Should the dates signed in the forms be on or after the application eligibility, or is it okay that they are dated before the eligibility? For example, for Form 1195 (Identity Declaration form), I plan to have it signed to my dentist on my next appointment days before I'll be eligible for application for citizenship. Para isang lakad na lang.
Thanks!

Although hindi tayo same ng experience, kasi nag file ako ng Form 1195 after ng eligibility date, sa tingin ko kailangan up to date ang ID photo na isu-submit mo kasi within 6 months ang validity nuon. So mas recommended yata na malapit sa date ng eligibility mo para pag process, within the validity pa rin ang ID photo mo.

Thanks sa response. Sana nga mabilis lang kasi magastos mag apply ng RRV then puede pala mag AUS passport na. Yung kakilala ko kasi is 2 weeks after ng approval niya, nagkaroon siya ng invite for ceremony this april, so parang 2 months lang from approval to ceremony.
