    @se29m If you want to be on the safe side, itiming mo na lang. Ano ba yung current na waiting time sa Perth until the test or interview? Kung makakabalik ka sa work prior to your test I reckon that would be good enough though I’m not directly saying na makakaffect but just to be sure since ang tagal ng waiting time.

    Nag lodge ako June-2018. Wala pa din feedback hanggang ngayon. Di ko na lang muna iisipin para di mainip at ma-anxious.

    Hi,

    May na encounter na error si hubby sa pag lodge ng citizenship, exactly 4yrs sya dto sa Oz today 5/2, eto un error

    The applicant is unable to proceed with this application. Access the Residence calculator to check when the applicant will have been in Australia long enough to be eligible for Australian citizenship.

    Will try tomorrow na i continue un application kasi baka d pa nila acknowledge un 4yrs today hehehe

    Pag nag error pa rin, tatawag kami.

    May naka encounter ba ng same error namin? Tnx po sa sasagot

    Hello All! Magtatanong lang po sana ako sa mga couples na nag apply na ng citizenship.

    My partner and I (both female in a De facto relationship) applied for citizenship in April 2018.

    Last week (Wednesday), I received my citizenship exam date. Yung sa partner ko, wala pa ring update up to now.

    Should we be worried or is this normal kahit couple kayo na magiging magkaiba ang dates niyo for exam and selection?

    I'm thinking nauna lang ako kasi of my family name na starts with I, tapos sa partner ko starts with L.

    Thanks sa mga sasagot. :)

    Applications are evaluated individually even if they are linked. Ang downside lang ng linked application is kahit nauna ka naapproved, aantayin ang result ng partner mo before both of you are invited for a ceremony. Definitely, your family name doesnt have any bearing why your application was reviewed ahead of you partner.

    Thanks sa sagot, hindi na ako masyado nagworry. Okay lang naman na maghintay para sabay kami ng ceremony. Para isang kainan and celebration na lang. hehehe.
