you can apply for RRV even after your PR expires... if aabot naman maging citizen ka and get an Au passport before your trip... sayang din yung massave mo sa RRV...
mabilis lang approval ng RRV.. parang auto-approve sya.. within 10mins marereceive mo yung Grant email.

Question po sa pag-aapply ng citizenship, kelangan po bang separate applications ang husband at wife?
Nung nag fill-up kasi ako ng application ko sa ImmiAccount ko, yung details lng ng anak ko ang hiningi.
Hindi hiningi ang passport details ni wife tsaka details ng parents nya.
Salamat sa sasagot

Hi Guys,
May nag submit po ba ng citizenship application na nasa Victoria January/Feb/March/April 2020?
March 10 kasi ako nagsubmit hanggang ngayon wala pa update. Normal lang ba sa mga nasa Victoria matagal maka receive ng update?
Thank you.
praise God

You have to follow up that. Usually the approval takes only less than a month. Yung iba in 2 days may approval agad. Ang matagal sa lahat is the citizenship ceremony which takes 3 to 12 months. Making follow-up doesn't make negative impact on the application. So follow-up lang lagi.
