Guest WEZLY80 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 I am unsure about the 4 year rule for citizenship. My problem is that i have a 175 visa which was granted 18/02/09, valid to 18/02/14. I am travelling to OZ next week only for a week to validate my visa, then i come back to the UK. Then im going on a overland trip from the UK to Oz which reaches Oz in early March 2010. So i will be permenantly in Oz from March 2010 to Febuary 2014 just a few weeks shy off 4 years. Will they allow me to apply for citizenship when my visa runs out? or will they kick me out the country? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please see link explaining citizenship. Step 1: Am I eligible? – Other situations Best wishes Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
