No, I'm from Monee Valley. According to their website the last ceremony for 2019 was last week. So I guess I'll wait until Australia day.

Moreland seem to have them really regularly. Recently up to 4 per month, but the page on the council website hasn't been updated recently, so we'll see.

Based on a couple of other Moreland applicants, I'm seeing a rough wait of 3-4 months after approval. Fingers crossed!

Want to preface this with the fact that we have been *incredibly* lucky on our visa/migration journey in regards to turnaround times. I definitely did not expect this timeline or take this for granted.

But, this morning my citizenship flipped over to Approved too, after the OH's has end of last week. We're on the last straight!

You don't get a notification, it just changes automatically then about 10 days later your letter arrives.

Hi folks new to this forum, just curious about my application if expert members will be able to answer will be thankful.I submitted my application on 28-January-2019 (Western Australia Pilbara Region) and until now i haven,t received  any update on Immi account. I am not sure about post due to fifo work maybe i miss the post but at least something should be updated on Immi account?

Should i contact them or just keep waiting?

Hi Rizwa, I guess there is no harm on calling the helpline and asking. Probably you get the standard answer that your application is within the published waiting time. But if it helps you feel better that at least you did something, I'll say go for it.

Good luck.

I travel multiple times per year with my company for business and it's all HR countries, will that be affecting the process time?

does that mean the border and security department will have to investigate my file every time I go for an overseas trip?

Hi Guys

Seems like I have done the following mistakes unknowingly on my application:

My brother’s name (last name is first name)

My parents DOB

**Parents and brother are not part of my application, there info was required under family details.

 

How can i get it rectified and what are the consequences?

 

Thanks for your help!

Firstly do not stress, I believe you need a form 929, change of detail's. passport /Address etc... attached  a covering letter with you TRN or Citizenship application number with it and advise the dept of the simple error.  people make mistakes all the time they are used to it. ( ensure you have all legitimate proof to show the error.  if its already uploaded tell them.

Thanks for replying!

Yes I have submitted it already.

Immi account only shows to update passport, address and email update.

I can download 929 but where to send it.

Thanks for your help!

Hi Georgiegie and Chris N Lora

I had a call with the citizenship 131881 helpline and they told me to fill 1023 and attach it to the application. 929 is used for address, contact and passport details while 1022 is used for change in circumstances e.g. relationship etc.

Thanks!

Hi Guys

Starting the process of applying for Citizenship.. Can anyone please tell me at what stage I should apply for my UK police clearance certificate? (As I spent a bit of time in the UK)

 

Should I apply for it now and upload it with my online application? Or do I need to wait for immigration to tell me to get it at a particular stage in the process?

i assume that uploading the police clearance online is the correct way to provide this clearance?

 

Thanks in advance
