Australian Citizenship Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

Who can apply for Australian citizenship?

Tourists visiting Australia

Permanent residents who meet the eligibility criteria

The ability to apply for Australian citizenship is primarily reserved for individuals who are permanent residents of Australia and who meet certain eligibility criteria. This generally includes requirements such as having lived in Australia for a specific amount of time, demonstrating good character, and having an adequate understanding of the English language as well as knowledge of Australia.

Those who hold a temporary visa or are simply visiting Australia do not have the legal status necessary to apply for citizenship. Additionally, while Australian citizens born overseas can hold citizenship status, they do not need to apply for it since they are already recognized as citizens by birth. As such, permanent residents who fulfill the necessary criteria are the only group among the given options that can actively apply for citizenship.
