    Guys, there’s a portion in the citizenship application saying there should be someone to attest your residency by signature needed. Could you share whom you went to? I think ito yun tao na magpapatunay na nandito tayo Sa Australia at matagal na rin sya na citizen...

    Form 1195 ata yan... I went sa former colleague ko na andito na sa Oz na member ng Engineers Australia... I think you can even go to your GP (na matagal ka nang kilala) to ask for his endorsement.. andun yung listahan sa form kung sino pwede mag-sign... he needs to sign the form 1195 and the back of the photo you are submitting in your application...

    It's about the same period... 1 week after kasi ng PR Grant ko nag Initial Entry na ko agad..

    Hndi naman ako hiningan ng ANY PCC during may Immi Account application ko.. pero during the citizenship interview, yun yung unang binanggit nung officer sakin na need ko daw i-submit...

    Actually nung una hindi nga nya inispecify na 'Thailand' sabi nya... 'I think the only thing we'll be needing from you is an overseas penal clearance for any country you stayed for over 90 days..."

    dahil dito nakita ko sa site

    Penal clearance certificates
    If you have spent a total of 12 months or more outside Australia since we granted you a permanent visa , you need to give us overseas police certificates from every country, including your home country, where you have spent a total of more than 90 days since you turned 18.

    Ask the country's government or law enforcement authority for a certificate.

    We might ask you to provide a penal clearance certificate in other circumstances.

    @wizardofOz . PCC nalang need mo and good to go ka na? Nagtanong ako sa Consulate kung gaano katagal ang processing sabi nila di daw sure Next week palang kami magsusubmit ng application di kasi namin masyadong naasikaso dahil busy. Baka submit na namin application namin then start na namin iprocess ang PCL din namin. Pwede naman atang to follow nalang sya kahit nakalodge na yung application?

    dahil dito nakita ko sa site

    Penal clearance certificates
    If you have spent a total of 12 months or more outside Australia since we granted you a permanent visa , you need to give us overseas police certificates from every country, including your home country, where you have spent a total of more than 90 days since you turned 18.

    Ask the country's government or law enforcement authority for a certificate.

    We might ask you to provide a penal clearance certificate in other circumstances.

    yun kayang 'a total of more than 90 days'.. 90 days continuous stay kaya yun or cumulative?

    kasi if cumulative, then I will need to submit NBI clearance also

    ang unawa ko is

    example
    visa grant date is Jan 2015
    initial entry Feb 2015
    stayed in SG (10months)
    stayed in Thai (2months)
    stayed in PH ( 1month)
    big move April 2016

    first condition is, from date of PR grant until big move mo, kapag more than 12 months.
    ---- then automatic you need PCC pero sa example s taas, SG PCC lng need mo ipasa since yun lng ang more than 90 days

    pero kapag ang big move mo is before 12 months from PR grant date, then no need for PCC.

    correct me if im wrong.

    The applicant has resided or travelled overseas since the age of 18 years or over, and
    the total time spent overseas added up to 12 months or more, and

    if na-satisfy yung 3 since puro AND nakalagay, then you have to.

    tapos may OR , yang last part ay discretion na ng case officer

    parang hndi mo na need ng PCC, in my understanding

    all the best
