2007年07月01日以后成为澳洲永久居民的人要注意了!
2007年07月01日以后成为澳洲永久居民(PR)的人,在申请入籍前必须在澳洲住满4年,其中至少1年为澳洲永久居民。在此4年等待期间,不能离境超过12个月,在递交申请前12个月内不能离境超过3个月。2007年07月01日以前成为澳洲永久居民并在2010年6月30日前递交入籍申请的人,延用5年内住满2年,最后2年内住满1年的入籍政策。
那我想問."其中至少1年为澳洲永久居民".
我自己是1998年到2001年澳洲讀書的. 那麼06年才申請PR.
如果我本年拿到PR, 讀書VISA的那4年算不算阿..
是不是作了1年的PR就可以入籍阿?
Residence requirement
People who became permanent residents on or after 1 July 2007 must have been lawfully resident in Australia for 4 years immediately before applying including:
12 months as a permanent resident
and
absences from Australia of no more than 12 months, including no more than 3 months in the 12 months before applying.
If people became permanent residents before 1 July 2007 and apply before 30 June 2010, they must have been physically present in Australia as a permanent resident for a total of 2 years in the 5 years before applying, including 1 year in the 2 years before applying.
Note: Periods of lawful residence cannot include a period of confinement in a prison or psychiatric institution by order of a court made in connection with proceedings for an offence against an Australian law except in limited circumstances.
See: Residence exemptions and discretions
Residence exemptions and discretions
Exemptions
People are exempt from the residence requirement if they:
have served 3 months in the permanent forces of the Commonwealth
or
have served 6 months in the navy, army or air force reserve
or
were discharged from defence service as medically unfit for that service.
A partial exemption applies to former Australian citizens and people born in Australia. They need only have been resident in Australia for 12 months as a permanent resident.
Discretions
There is a discretion for the residence requirement:
periods during which a person was present in Australia as an unlawful non-citizen solely because of an administrative error may be treated as periods of lawful residence
periods of lawful residence in Australia but not as a permanent resident solely because of an administrative error may be treated as periods of permanent residence
periods of lawful residence in Australia but not as a permanent resident may be treated as a period of permanent residence if a person would otherwise suffer significant hardship or disadvantage
periods spent outside Australia by the permanent resident spouse (including de facto spouse), widow or widower of an Australian citizen may be treated as periods in Australia, if they had close and continuing association with Australia during that period
periods spent outside Australia by a permanent resident who is in a interdependent relationship with an Australian citizen may be treated as periods in Australia if they had close and continuing association with Australia during that period
periods of confinement in a prison or psychiatric institution may be counted towards the residence requirement if it would be unreasonable not to do so, taking into account the circumstances which resulted in the person’s confinement. |
