    Citizenship Done

    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
  2. No she has got her PR already, and both me and my sister have been living in Adelaide for 7-10 years (we are her only children), and she will definitely stay here with us permanently as we have no plan to move anywhere else. But at the moment for the next few years because she has properties and things in America to sort out so she will have to go back there every now and then. Hence the green card she's got is very handy to keep.
  3. Hi John & Eirian Apart from the benefits she will get once she is a citizen, the most important thing is she won't have to worry when she needs to go back to America (most of our relatives are there) as she needs to keep her green card as well and they only allow her to travel out of America in a certain time frame before losing her green card. I know she will get medicare straight away but still other benefits she can get once she is a citizen here. Both my sister and me are well settled here so she won't have much problems when she comes (she has been here number of times before as well)
  4. thanks, so apart from the last year, in the previous 3 year what is the maximum time she can travel out of Australia at a time?
  5. Hi I have been reading this thread for a while but couldn't find the answers to my question. My mom is coming here after getting her Contributory Permanent Visa granted recently. I want to know when she arrives here how long she has to stay here for before she is eligible to apply for citizenship? I read somewhere that you have to be living here for at least 4 years with minimum 12 month as Permanent Resident. But my mom will have her PR straight away, does that mean she only needs to wait 1-2 years or must be 4 years? The reason is she also has an US green card and she wishes to keep it as well so it's kind of making sure she can come back to both Australia and US if she travels to one of them. Thank you
