now a aussie
Sorry if this has been asked before, but can I go to the uk on my uk passport now that I am a Australian citizen, because I may have to go back to the uk on short notice and want to be able to get back in the country.
I have been told that you can up to the five years is up on your visa, but I am thinking that my 136 visa is void now that I am a citizen. Also any idea on the timeline of getting a passport , many thanks Paul |

You would need to make sure that the airline would accept that for travel though. EDIT: i may have imagined this completely, in fact probably have! |

Yes, however you need a visa or Australian passport to enter Aus. When you get citizenship your PR visa is cancelled. As an Aus citizen you cannot apply for an ETA on your UK passport to get back into Aus.
