sorry to pump this thread up, can I ask what reasons one can use to apply for urgent ceremony? about the uni, what difference does that make to non citizen apart from the fees? Did you have to show any proof that you are going to uni? I am eligible for the test late March and want to get the passport done asap after due to family reasons in USA. With Australian passport means I won't have to apply for a visa to USA which can be declined and costly. Thanks
