Hi everyone, just a quick update, went to my Citizenship Ceremony yesterday at Kingston Victoria. Thank you for all the information and helps from this place. Wishing everyone the best with speedy approval and Ceremony - we will all get there.

Hi there, we applied in Melbourne May 2020. Sorry to hear your loss.

Hi Everyone, just a quick update - received my citizenship ceremony invitation on 20/05/2021 MELBOURNE Kingston Council. Ceremony date mid June 2021. My interview & test was done and approved on 20/04/2021 and 21/04/2021. A lot faster than I expected. Good luck to all of you, the day will come.

Hi there, Melbourne applied in May 2020, received and completed test. Your June application shouldn’t be far off now. it looks like from application to test invite, about a year, then approval to ceremony another 6 month. Hopefully they are doing catching up, so it will move a bit faster.

Finally received a test and interview date - just a quick update for people in VIC Melbourne. Application date: 08/05/2020 Test and Interview date received: 08/04/2021 Test scheduled in May 2021.

Just a quick update for whom still interested to track the processing time. We received our grant letter today. So 18 month and few days. We finally got there.

2008? When I was doing my study, Melbourne is my place of usual residence since. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi Rammygirl, thank you for the information. I got my PR in Feb 2014 and citizenship in Dec 2015. So does it start counting from Feb 2014? Thank you again!

Thank you for the information.

Hi all, just a quick question, hopefully someone can shed some light to this maybe stupid question, thank you in advance. I am currently sponsoring my partner for the 820 partner visa. My parents also intend to move to AU to live here. Would I be able to sponsor them? Or the five years sponsorship restriction also apply to non-partner sponsorship visa? Thank you very much!

Sorry Missblue, I am just back from Holiday. No, no news (other than granting us the bridging visa B). We just realised the Sri Lankan police check is expired, so will call them once we upload the new one. No point to call them before hands.

Hi Missblue, No. No one contact me to request more information. No notification of grant either. We hope to hear something (hopefully by December) before we have to travel! Hopefully no news is good news. Will definitely let you know if we hear anything from the department.

Quick updates - applied my Bridging VISA B, received grant notification 7 working days later. Rang the department (due to the urgency of bridging visa B) and asked for an update of 820 application - processing time is now increased to 16-18 months. But immigration website still showing 12-15 months. So not sure what's the story. No news from the department yet, will ring again if we hear nothing by end of this month (15 month mark).
