Australian Citizenship

Becoming an Australian citizen is the final step in your migration journey. Citizenship provides rights and benefits that go beyond permanent residency, including the right to vote, access to an Australian passport, and the assurance of permanent belonging. At MyVisa Lawyers, I help permanent residents, families, and returning Australians navigate the citizenship process with confidence and care.

What Is Australian Citizenship?

Australian citizenship is a legal status that grants full rights and obligations as a member of the Australian community. Citizenship can be acquired through different pathways, including:

• Citizenship by Conferral – For permanent residents meeting residency and character requirements.
• Citizenship by Descent – For children born overseas to Australian citizens.
• Citizenship by Birth – For those born in Australia under certain legal conditions.
• Citizenship by Resumption – For former citizens who want to regain Australian citizenship.

Applicants must generally satisfy residency requirements, pass a citizenship test (if applicable), and demonstrate good character.

Our Australian citizenship services are for:

• Permanent residents ready to take the final step toward citizenship.
