Citizenship application

piglet24 · May 2018

@fgs probably ganun nga. one question though. if using the residency calculator, yung lawful residence date is yung big move ba or yung initial entry? From initial entry umalis pa kasi kami pero d naman umabot ng isang taon. tama ba pagkakaintindi ko? Thanks ulit.

fgs · May 2018

@piglet24 Initial entry ang counting

fgs · May 2018

Separate application for each adult, your child can be included in any of the parents' application. You can use 1 immi account

@rylynn yes citizenship by conferral..standard na yang sagot nila..actually di sila nagbibigay ng specific status ng application kaya antay ka lang ano mangyari..possible na abutin ng 16 mos. marami ako nababasa na tagal na nagaantay wala pa din.

Hello! Congrats sa mga nakapag lodge na ng application at sa mga umuusad na ang papeles! Naghahanap sana kami ng pwedeng makatulong. Yung husband ko ay eligible for citizenship na. Isasabay na nya sana sa application ang 2 kids namin. Ako hindi pa pwede dahil last year lang ako at kids nag move dito. Almost complete na ang requirements nila kaso yung 3 yr old son namin walang mahanap na pwedeng pumirma ng identity declaration form nya dahil hindi pa siya nag school. Nasa Perth kami, baka may mairecommend kayo na pwede naming malapitan para makapirma. Hinahabol sana ni mister na maisubmit bago mag July. Thanks sa mga sasagot! Goodluck sa mga ibang nag aapply din!

Cassey · June 2018

@RBurgos Kung sino yung pumirma sa hubby mo, pwede na rin yun sa child mo.

dee0829 · June 2018

@RBurgos yup Cassey is right.

or gp nya good luck

PNay · June 2018

Hi Kabayans,

Malapit na mag expire passport ko. Ok Lang ba na expired ang passport when applying for citizenship?

May nabasa din ako dito sa thread na Hindi na kailangan ng NBI clearance if I didn’t stay overseas for more than 90days since becoming PR. Can anyone please confirm this.

Salamat :-)

epiboy99 · June 2018

@PNay May nabasa din ako na ok lang even if expired na yung passport though I cannot really confirm.

Yeah, you do not need NBI clearance.

Good luck.

PNay · June 2018

@epiboy99 Salamat. At least I have one less thing to worry about

janine0511 · July 2018

Hello guys, ask ko lng re identity declaration kelangan b personal na kilala mag sign? Wala kasi ako masyado kilala au citizen na. Pwede ba sa JP or sa bank kahit once lng nagpunta dun at customer lng nila ako? Tatawagan ba sila ng immi to confirm? Thanks

rylynn · July 2018

@janine0511 may mga listed profession at may minimum months that personally kilala ka noong nasa identity declaration try mo yung GP nyo doctor nyo .Pwede sya magsign.

rylynn · July 2018

@PNay yes ok lang expired passport, 2 kakilala ko expired na passports ginamit sa pag applied. All the best!

janine0511 · July 2018

@rylynn thank you na check ko iba occupations wala ako kilala au citizen na. Pr lng. And dapat 1yr personal kilala? Gp once lng ako nagpunta. Next option ko sana JP not sure kung mag sign sila

Cassey · July 2018

@janine0511 It’s better na kakilala ka sabi nung Pharmacist namin may tumatawag raw to check kung kakilala nila yung nagpapasign especially kapag may signed photo.

piglet24 · July 2018

Hi ulit guys. Another tanong. Anybody nag lodge ng citizenship application na kailangan ng police clearance or something from UAE? I tried sending them email wala naman nag rereply. it has been two months. Thanks sa mga sasagot.

PNay · July 2018

@rylynn salamat for confirming!

epiboy99 · July 2018

My wife applied last 4 December 2017 and will have her test on 3 August 2018. Today namin natanggap yung email (25 July 2018).

Julz · July 2018

@epiboy99 grabe so 7 months..

epiboy99 · July 2018

@Julz yeah. tyaga tyaga lang talaga sa paghihintay. according to DHA website, ang processing tiem from lodgement to ceremony is 14 - 17 months.

epiboy99 · August 2018

My wife applied 4 December 2017, we rescheduled her test date to 27 July 2018 (original sched 3 August 2018) and application was approved on the same day. Citizenship ceremony is on 28 August.
