Individuals eligible to apply for citizenship should have lived in the country for at least four years with at least twelve months as a permanent resident. Additionally, they must meet good character requirements and be able to provide all relevant documentation. Our citizenship lawyers can help you through every step of the process, helping you avoid unnecessary complexities.
The first step of citizenship application is to lodge it through the Department of Home Affairs. Then, the applicant needs to provide all necessary evidence, including identification documents, residency, and character checks. If the applicant is successful in this part of the process, they will be invited for a citizenship test, assessing knowledge of Australian history, government, and values. With the help of an experienced Australian citizenship lawyer, you will be provided with the knowledge and skills required to pass with flying colours.
The Australian citizenship test is a massive part of the process. It consists of multiple-choice questions on Australian history, values, and government, and applicants must achieve at least 75% to pass. The test is carefully designed to ensure applicants have an understanding of what it means to be an Australian citizen. Our citizenship lawyers will ensure you are aware of everything you need to know, increasing your chances of passing this crucial step towards citizenship.
