Default 5 years

Short and sweet. Been here 5 years Sunday. Busy year. Became citizens in January. 5 week trip to Blighty in June. In short, happy as pigs in poo. Hated being in the UK, glad to get home to slow, laid back Perth. Australia isn't for everyone but it is my home and the entire Northernbird family are proud to be Australian Citizens.

Congratulations, it is always great to hear from somebody with no regrets and no complaints.

We have been here 5 years too and feel just the same as you, we went to the UK last year and could not wait to get home to Brisbane. Very proud to be Australian citizens and all I can say is....... we wish we had done it years ago.

Too lazy to do updates any more so I'll just jump on this thread and say 5 years for us too (or it will be in September). Settled very quickly and very happy with our lot!

Well done to all of us for our 5 year milestone! Bring on the next 5! . . . .

Fantastic

I want to take up citizenship when I get the opportunity. I have my PR but will need to wait a few years yet.

I also like the slower pace and the more relaxed outlook
