Both my husband and myself met citizenship requirements in June last year (2018), applied and then had to leave the country. We came back and sat our citizenship test and had interview and passed in March-this year but could not remain onshore for the timeline of 6 months for approval and left Australia, Our children, both under 16 were under my husbands application and we now think that it is better to add the them to my application, or is it too late? I will return to Australia within six month approval time line and look for work. We left for family reasons, grandfather being very old and ill, delays with house sale/renting it out due to Brexit. The delays in citizenship processing times made our son ineligible for a loan to begin university unless he was a citizen, thus, he was in in limbo. My children wish to study and live out their lives there. Uk is a temporary move.
Can we add our children to my application given we have not yet been approved?
