Hey guys, I just looked at Australian citizenship process and processing time and it is sooo cool and great.
You need 4 years of lawful residence in Australia. 3 out of 4 years can be while you are on temporary visa. like a student for example.
Only Min of 1 year needs to be as a permanent resident. And also out of the total 4 years, you are allowed to be away for max 1 year.
And most importantly the processing time is only 60 days from the day of launching the application.... ;D ;D ;D ;D
Awwww I wish we had the same above, I would have been a citizen now...
anyways I am very happy here with everything, so I will focus on my career for next 2 years till I get citizenship. if it was not for my job requiring business meeting travels to Europe, i wouldn't be worried about the processing time. Applying for visa each and every time you travel to a different country is not easy for HR people.
Good luck

That's nice. I would have been a citizen a 1.5 years ago. That's the annoying part. I have been in Canada since 2004. Came as a student and then switched to Skilled Worker and then to PR and now waiting for the citizenship. Close to 10 years for crying out loud!!!
And still I am being treated like any other Permanent Resident who landed here 3 years ago...it not fair I tell you! But hey, good luck to everyone ;D

Yeah bro, same here, would have been citizen longggggg time ago....10 years is a very long time, I am sure many of us share the same timeline....farrous13 said:
Only if the processing times were better and only if there was no RQ fear, awww that would have been amazing....i am so Canadian now that many recognize me as a local lol.......although they sometimes ask if I am from UK lol haha....
And interestingly i have also seen the the following figures from internet:
Immigrant Population of Canada = 6.8 million and Immigrant Population of Australia = 5 million
Although difference of 1.8 million is a big number, still comparatively the processing times have a wide gap.
Well keep yourself busy with other things, thats for sure. The best way i found is to meet some new girl and start dating. That way time flies very fast lol
hehe. Pretty busy but not with dating. lool. My wife and I are pregnant (don't know if it's a boy or girl) so will be busy for a long time 8). But guess what? Our child will get his/her citizenship before we do.
