Hi Everyone, Just received a phone call from council for the Moreton Bay ceremony on March 21st next Monday.

If anyone else has a feeling that they should have been invited by now to a citizenship ceremony and haven't received anything. check your relatives email. - As apparently because I mention my mother on my application as close family and provided contact details including email address, they sent my invite to her email, she's hopeless at checking emails lol. (and yes I checked my immi account and my email is the primary corresponded email address - always has been)

So they rung me as they had not heard from me, it was a private number lucky I picked up. Apparently Home Affairs gave them the wrong email address. So just a heads up to everyone. Although they rung me - its still last minute and I could have been out of town and not been able to make it back on time. 

My Timeline:

Applied for Citizenship: 12 May 2021

Invitation for Test and Interview received on 15 June 2021 for 15 July 2021

Rescheduled myself to 25 June 2021 

Approved 25 June 2021 Same day - received my official letter by mail a few days after 

Invite to Ceremony: 15/03/2022 for 21/03/2022 (should have received invite at least 2 weeks ago)

Hope this information helps!

Yay!! I was wondering how I got the invite when your approval was before mine.

See you on Monday. Congratulations.

No, haven't received anything yet.

Any news on when the next ceremony is for Moreton bay ?

Waiting since July 2021. I think the wait time is 8 months for us.

Please dial them and inform about this. They will hold the ceremony call.

@Tzhamzl_tn74, do you know if I need to call the council or department of home affairs?

Hi Guys,

I am waiting for a call / letter for the ceremony. But I am traveling soon and would like to make sure that the ceremony isn't scheduled while I am away. Is there a way to notify the council / department to not to schedule the ceremony during my travel period?

Cheers.

People in this forum living in Moreton Bay Regional council still waiting for ceremony?

Yeah.

Citizenship Application: 04/05/2021
Invitation to sit test received: 15/06/2021
Test Date: 13/07/2021
Approval: 13/07/2021
Ceremony: TBA

Query on lamination of document.

I have a original document which is laminated as the actual document was quite fragile.
During the interview it is asked to show the original document. Does the lamination will create any issues during the interview?

This document was in another language, so I have an official translation from NAATI, of which I have got the original.

TIA.

On immiaccount what's the status progression through out the application?
Once you submit application, then it says received. Does it change when one receives the date for interview or exam?

@Aayush sorry to hear hear about your loss. My condolences.

there is a drop-down box in the online app that has “deceased” as an option.

 

so when you inform them, I’m sure they will just update your file.

 

all the best.

Thank you Bondi797, is the option available after submitting the application? When you say online app, I suppose you are referring to the immiAccount, am I correct?

I have recently applied for the citizenship application, and since then my mother passed away due to COVID. Now, do I need to fill 1022 form to update my application? and If so, what should I mention, as in the application there is no question about being deceased. Would I be just updating her expiry of citizenship date?

On the application, where it asks for siblings, how do I mention sister in law? There is no option for that.
