    @Tasburrfoot

    Yes i'm going back to the Philippines once i get my citizenship to "reflect" hahahah. My main purpose of migrating actually is to get an australian passport. I have some business ties back home to consider.

    I've been lurking in online forums and found out citizenship approval is so quick but waiting for ceremony takes ages. Oath taking date usually comes from the city council and lucky enough if you live in a suburb that holds ceremony every month.

    Congrats Ren, you got the approval after few hours of passing the test. San ako rin hehehe.

    Hi @pissedball, I want to accomplish a similar setup as you. Once I get citizenship (2 years pa ang antayan before I am eligible), I plan to spend 50-50 of my time in PH then AU, ie 6 months each. Just wondering if you don't mind me asking, how has it been with your setup of having your business in PH, do you still come to AU? Any complications with this type of setup based on your experience, like AU revoking the citizenship or vice-versa?

    Congrats Ren, you got the approval after few hours of passing the test. San ako rin hehehe.

    Hi @pissedball, I want to accomplish a similar setup as you. Once I get citizenship (2 years pa ang antayan before I am eligible), I plan to spend 50-50 of my time in PH then AU, ie 6 months each. Just wondering if you don't mind me asking, how has it been with your setup of having your business in PH, do you still come to AU? Any complications with this type of setup based on your experience, like AU revoking the citizenship or vice-versa?
    have you guys ever thought about implication with respect to your tax on what you are planning to do? :)
    hi @TasBurrfoot, it crossed my mind but I have not had a chance to research about taxes when earning in two places. My uneducated guess would be you pay taxes to the of the country where you earned the salary? ATM, I am PR and only earning / paying taxes in AU, I don't know yet how complicated it will be when I get dual citizenship...
