darkstone1975 Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 As the subject goes, is anyone currently getting citizenship? just rang them up today as I just had my appointment and Australia test and passed a week ago and there saying it could be at least 3 months before I get a letter approving next step. Is anyone experiencing that kind of time frame at the moment, as I'm trying to determine when to apply for wife's ancestry visa back to uk and is kinda dependent on it happening before next march as that when the elder daughter turns 18. To say I'm getting concerned is an understatement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PNE POM Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Hi DS1975, I completed my test 3 weeks ago, I received my citizenship confirmation letter last Thursday so only had to wait 2 a bit weeks :smile: It's the ceremony date that takes the time, I heard it could be anything upto 6 months depending on where you live Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petkula73 Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Hi - we're eligible in August 2015. Do you need to wait until you are eligible to make the application, or can things be done ahead of time such as taking the test? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realitynotincluded Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 good news is that they say 3 months so anything before that seems like a bonus.... you never know.. ya could get lucky As the subject goes, is anyone currently getting citizenship? just rang them up today as I just had my appointment and Australia test and passed a week ago and there saying it could be at least 3 months before I get a letter approving next step.

PNE POM Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Thanks for answering that AJ, I've been here 9 years so the question of waiting for the requirements to come into play wasn't a problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
