Australian citizenship is a separate process from holding a visa or permanent residence. The requirements and documents depend on the application type and your circumstances. Understanding what applies to your situation is the starting point for careful preparation.
Infinia provides citizenship advice and application assistance. If you are considering applying, preparing your records or unsure what to check first, tell Sol which application you have in mind so she can confirm how she can assist.
Make sense of your residence history
Where residence requirements apply, the relevant dates and periods outside Australia need careful attention. Your immigration and travel records help establish the history to review, rather than relying on memory or assuming that permanent residence alone is enough.
Bring your documents into a clear picture
Identity records, any name changes and other supporting documents need to be considered for the application in question. Reviewing what you have and what needs clarification can make the preparation more manageable.
