what's the current status of the citizenship requirement?
so much changes, couldn't follow already
The Australian Government is strengthening the requirements to become an Australian citizen. See the media release available at Minister for Immigration and Border Protection website.
This includes:
1. Increasing the general residence requirement, which means an applicant for Australian citizenship will need to
demonstrate a minimum of four years permanent residence immediately prior to their application for citizenship
2. Introducing an English language test, which means applicants will need to demonstrate competent English language
listening, speaking, reading and writing skills before being able to sit the citizenship test
3. Strengthening the Australian Values Statement to include reference to allegiance to Australia and require applicants
to make an undertaking to integrate into and contribute to the Australian community
4. Strengthening the test for Australian citizenship through the addition of new test questions about Australian values,
and the privileges and responsibilities of Australian citizenship
5. Introducing a requirement for applicants to demonstrate their integration into the Australian community
6. Strengthening the Pledge of commitment as a citizen of the Commonwealth of Australia in the Australian Citizenship
Act 2007 to refer to allegiance to Australia; and extending the requirement for individuals aged 16 years and over
to make the Pledge to all streams of citizenship by application, including citizenship by descent, adoption and
resumption.
Surely if you can get a PR you can fulfill these requirements lol.
