Source: Citizenship processing times (homeaffairs.gov.au) Well mine is exactly 19 months now. Still waiting for approval ! Last month when was 18 months on timeframe and this passed , again heard nothing . I communicated with them heard nothing . I called them they told this shouldn’t happen and they gave me the Adelaide office PO Box address for Delays to sent a request and again heard nothing back( 3 months now) she told me that is better to sent it via post because if I sent it with email and is a system error in my file they will never read it. Passed the test 100% before exactly 13 months. no problems no further documentation has requested. Btw I have already applied to ombudsman. Their response is that will take up 10 weeks to solve that.

You will only receive a letter via post office and also your account status will be changed to approved. Was your application online (via immiaccount) or on paper? Mine is online application so all the communication I've received from the department was via emails: intervew appoiment, approval letter, ceremony invitation. None was postal.

Online however I am pretty sure that the approval letter used to come via post . Except if they changed that recently. If you read here the pages from 2020-2021 you will see everyone received approval letter via postal. And at the same time the status turned into approval in the account without email notification. Is Good if they changed that . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yameen Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Hi All, Please guide me. I lost my birth certificate which was uploaded with my citizenship application. Meanwhile, I was able to get a new birth certificate from the government. Is it important to upload it now as I shall be showing it, if asked, during the interview tomorrow? All the contents of the new birth certificate are same except it has a different date of issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my case approval letter and ceremony inviation were all reveived in Q2 of 2022 via emails only. Probably the department changed comunication methods recently. Not sure it was nationwide or just for certain states. I'm in VIC, by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a direct answer but you can refer to the following link: Applying online in ImmiAccount (homeaffairs.gov.au) In which it states: Tell us if you made a mistake To tell us about a mistake on your citizenship application: Attach a document to your application to tell us about the mistake and give us the correct information. login to ImmiAccount use the ‘+’ icon to expand the application details select ‘View details’ select ‘Attach documents’ select ‘Other documents’ enter a description select ‘Browse’ and the document file name select ‘Attach’ to upload Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Yameen, I am not sure how far it might help, but I had my Citizenship test and interview yesterday and I did not have my birth certificate with me at the appointment. The lady was asked me if I had it on me, and I didn't. I only had my International Passport, Australian Drivers Licence, Bank statement as an address proof (which she did not need), a copy of the National ID card issued by India, and a copy of my Marriage Certificate. She asked me if I had changed ever my name - which I hadn't. She noticed that I had attached a copy of my Birth Certificate in the application, which she saw. Didn't have any other issues, and the interview was all off 5 minutes. All the best with your interview today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While each application is individual and you can’t compare any case with yours, it seems unfortunately that Adelaide office is quite slow with approvals. Well I hope this is gonna change soon given I complained to Ombudsman and my complaint has been approved and is under investigation. I’ll keep you informed. Fingers crossed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
