Default 5 years on - finally applying for Aussie Citizenship

G'day from a winters day on the Gold Coast.

We have been here coming up 5 years and loving it! We have just received our Police checks back from the UK, so can now apply for Citizenship, however, just looked at hubby passport and it has expired.

Do we need a valid passport to apply for the Citizenship online? Really don't want to spend another $200 odd dollars getting a renewal for the British passport. Want to do the application online as it is much easier than a paper version.

Any help would be appreciated.

I don't believe so. Certainly when the applications were all paper you didn't need one, and it doesn't look like its on the checklist aslong asyou have other identity docs.

Identity documents
