Hi, Anyone in Toowoomba waiting for Australian Citizenship Ceremony? I got approval in August 2021 but I have not heard anything regards to the Ceremony.

Hi @APR, No, nothing at all. I have had approval since August 2021. What about you? Are you in Toowoomba as well? Regards,

Hi @jadee, I only got approval last week. I have emailed on the email address and no response yet. Looking at your timeline, I may have to wait 6 months. Let's see how it goes. Regards,

I see. Thanks for response

Hi, Anyone in Toowoomba, QLD waiting for the ceremony? Do we know what sort of backlog are we looking at for the Australian Citizenship Ceremony? Can we ring the council to inquire? Regards,

Hi all, Is there Virtual Ceremony email address for QLD? Can you please share it? Regards,

Good question...I would be interested in knowing as well.

Hi @ZULU2000, Don't stress. Its mostly common sense questions. I had read the booklet only once and passed the exam. Nothing tricky. Make sure you read the "Australian Values" section bit more because getting any of the "Australian Values" questions wrong is an automatic fail regardless how you do on rest of the test. Due to ongoing Covid, they did not check any of my documents. They did not want to touch my documents and spread Covid that way. They only checked my driver's licence. Good Luck!!!

Hi @Julies450, I, too, am in the same boat. Tested and Passed at Centrelink last month but no approval so far. Hopefully it comes soon!!! Regards,

Question about approval here. Does it always get approved in the ImmiAccount and then we receive letter? Or not necessarily? Regards,

Hi @ToowoombaBlue, Passed with 100% last week, now waiting for approval. I don't know how long will that take. Yes, reading "Our Common Bond" certainly helped!

Hi all, Has anyone gotten a Text message reminder for the Citizenship Appointment? I got one, Since I have not heard that before I am wondering if that's normal for everyone? Regards,

Hi @ToowoombaBlue, Its going good I guess. I have done the practice test online. I am wondering how similar the real exam is to the practice exam? Any idea? Regards,

Hi @ToowoombaBlue, I have heard back today. I have got a Citizenship Test Date for June 2021. Applied July 2020 Citizenship Test Date June 2021 Location: Toowoomba, QLD Regards,

Hi Zayn, I applied in Jul 2020. I have not heard anything back yet? You think I should lodge a FOI request? Or should I wait? And What exactly to put in the FOI request? Regards,

Anyone from Toowoomba has applied for Citizenship and heard from? I applied in Jul 2020, I have not heard anything yet. I am wondering what's going on? Thanks in Advance

Hi @ToowoombaBlue, You applied in June 2020? I applied in July 2020 from Toowoomba as well. Do you mind sharing what sort of information they have requested, so I can prepare as well? Good Luck. Regards,

Hi @ToowoombaBlue, I am also from Toowoomba. I applied in July 2020. I have not heard anything yet. I think the test is done by the Services Australia (Centrelink) in Toowoomba, not by the regional council. Regards,

Hi @JonOgre and @ToowoombaBlue I am also in Toowoomba. Have you guys heard anything regarding Test date back yet? I applied in July and have not heard anything at all. Regards,
