Please To meet the residence requirement when you apply for Australian citizenship, you must: - have been living in Australia on a valid Australian visa for 4 years immediately before you apply; and. - not have been absent from Australia for more than one year in the past 4 years.

If after 3 years of continuous stay and no leave can one apply after 3 years since that would be 36 months? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not unless you were previously a permanent resident of Australia for at least a year before your 3 years of continuous stay. New Zealand citizens must meet the general residence requirement of being lawfully present in Australia for four years, including 12 months as a permanent resident, immediately before the date of citizenship application. https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/entering-and-leaving-australia/new-zealand-citizens/pathway-to-permanent-resident-and-citizenship Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
