Citizenship application_Penal Clearance Certificate

Recommended Posts

Hi there,  

I would like to ask for some advice with the penal clearance certificate  in citizenship applications.  My situation requires me to obtain certificate from 2 different countries and the process is likely to take a while to complete. 

Should I apply for these certificates early and have them ready when I submit my application?  Or should I wait for DIBP to inform me to request for the certificates? 

How current must these certificates be? Must they cover the entire period till I complete the residency requirements for citizenship by conferral? 

The overseas police department may require reason for the penal clearance certificate request. Does DIBP provide such any document that I can use to support my certificate request? 

Thanks, J
