I am sure if you call they should rectify it, if you have changed the state

After PR I did not travel overseas.

thank you. It really helps.

I did my test a month ago. the case officer told me he will perform some additional checks and told me to wait 6 months for ceremony. But my application is still received. Any applicant from South Australia who is already approved. How many days did you waited for the approval after the test? I think regional applicants gets the test quicker but approval takes time

yes it matters if you are applying for jobs and they need NV1 security clearance

the government own audit report says otherwise. However, I agree with most of your points in the later comment

Does it define inactivity. The Audit also finds out there are 20% applications which are complex in nature? How you infer that the applicants which came through PR are affected by those who arrived on boats?

thanks for the information

haha. I did not read the full report but there are few interesting point (1) 80% of the applications (non complex) requires only 88 minutes to finalise (2) there is a lot of inactivity in processing of the application is this information (80% of applications would be processed till June 2019) mentioned in the report ??

thank you syd38

ANAO Report on citizenship processing is out, if anyone is interested https://www.anao.gov.au/work/performance-audit/efficiency-processing-applications-citizenship-conferral

Thank you. Is the approval letter is sent on the same day or status is approved on the same day?

I think it is same for everyone. You may safely ignore it

Applied : 20/06/2018 Test Date Received : 02/02/2019 for 25/03/2019

Finally some good news from Adelaide. I have got a test invite on 02/02/2019

are the processing timelines updated recently

I have read your first post and thought may be you are thinking of getting the citizenship together with your wife and kids. Therefore, I thought I should give you some info on that

they usually send it 4 weeks before the actual ceremony date. This is mentioned here https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/citizenship/ceremony

if anyone skips the ceremony then automatically be put on the next one. But, he/she must has to attend it within a year after approval.

OK. thanks

Currently the website mention the processing times and I can not find any information that it will be updated on the 10th of November

You can go to government authority which issues Proof of Age if you do not have any document which proves your address with name then they will give you a form and then verify it from your bank. Then again go to the government authority and they will send you Proof of Age in couple of weeks.

congrats

You can book it to an earlier date. You change the appointment online. There should be a link on your test date letter. Keep checking as earlier dates become available when people cancel at the last minute.
