Citizenship test timeline
 
Hi All

About to apply for citienship by conferral and although the immi website gives you average timelines for when your application decision is made and then citizenship ceremony, I am not sure when the citizenship test occurs?

For those who have been through the process can you please let me know how soon you were asked to complete this after your application submission?

Cheers
Scoosh

They post average timelines, the test is about a month since you submitted the application. It is very basic, just read the subject paper very well and you will not have issues. At worst, you will have another attempt.

Thank you, can you tell me if you needed to get new police certificates from abroad too? I have not been out the country for any significant period of time since I submitted police certificates in order to get my permanent residence so hoping I dont have to arrange for those again as it took a long time.

Cheers

No, not required, but just in case be ready to provide it.

Amazing thank you! Last question, was there anything that you think I should start gathering as part of the application asap?

Find proper referee that will meet requirements and agree to confirm it for you.
