seanOZ Posted November 13, 2018 Report Share Posted November 13, 2018 Hi, Need a bit of advice on how to proceed with citizenship application. We have been in Australia now for just over four years and are eligible for our citizenship application. In A few months ago we had our third born child who was born in Australia. We have been on our permanent residency Visa for approximately two years now. So my question is this, do I need to List him on our application as one of the children who is not apply for citizenship as he already has it? Silly question I know… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tntaglia Posted November 14, 2018 Report Share Posted November 14, 2018 Good question - I guess one of the agents would know. @SD_MOA or @TeeTMI can you help? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BriD Posted November 20, 2018 Report Share Posted November 20, 2018 From recollection you do list all children and there is a box to tick if they are also an applicant or not. We had our third in oz and submitted for citizenship in Feb 2018. Still waiting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stefans Posted November 20, 2018 Report Share Posted November 20, 2018 BriD it should not take that long. Have you written the test yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BriD Posted November 21, 2018 Report Share Posted November 21, 2018 Stefans, there is a massive backlog of citizenship applications and when I applied that was the expected time frame, between 12-18 months. https://www.sbs.com.au/yourlanguage/punjabi/en/article/2017/10/20/citizenship-application-backlog-mounts-120000 Since we have submitted we have not received any further correspondence. I check it from time to time, but it remains received...and so we wait. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
