终于水落石出了,可以看到大家基本可以放心的结果,发布在官方的citizenship网站。可以看见民主国家政府还是有信誉的。<br>
同时可以看出一小部分中国人的劣根,损人不利己就是其特点,一说要延长虽然对自己也略有损害(毕竟自己找工作,买房,政治权利都是公民有利),但就是见不的别人早拿了护照,事实上这只是涉及一个承诺的信用问题,跟做不做贡献,吃福利都没有关系,拿了护照离开一段的人都是认为国内或其他地方现有的机会超过澳洲的人,他们挣了钱以后始终会回到澳洲投资的,是更大的贡献,这样的人也绝对不会吃澳洲的福利,那只有留在澳洲才吃的到啊,哈哈。<br>
仔细看似乎4年也不恐怖,还包含了临居时间,中间可以离开12个月,看来澳洲政府还是没有乱来。<br>

<br>
What are the new residence requirements for Australian citizenship? <br>
<br>
The new residence requirements for Australian citizenship will mean that applicants will need:<br>
<br>
four years lawful residence in Australia immediately prior to making an application for Australian citizenship with at least 12 months as a permanent resident, and <br>
<br>
absences from Australia of no more than 12 months in total in the four years prior to application, and no more than three months in the 12 month permanent residency period prior to application. <br>
When will the new residence requirements come into effect? <br>
<br>
The Government will be moving amendments to the Australian Citizenship Bill 2005 . Commencement of the legislation is subject to passage through the Parliament. If it is passed during the current sittings the legislation could commence as early as Australia Day 2007, 26 January. <br>
<br>
Will they affect current permanent residents? <br>
<br>
The new residence requirements will apply to people who become permanent residents on or after commencement of the legislation. Current permanent residents will not be affected by these changes. <br>
<br>
Permanent residents who apply for Australian citizenship before the legislation is changed will need to meet the current residence requirements. <br>
<br>
What are the current residence requirements? <br>
<br>
At the moment, the Australian Citizenship Act 1948 provides, for applicants to be eligible for Australian citizenship, they need to have spent a minimum of two years permanent residence in Australia in the last five years, including at least 12 months in the last two years. <br>
<br>
What effect will the new residence requirements have on people who apply before the legislation is changed? <br>
<br>
Permanent residents who apply for Australian citizenship before the legislation is changed will need to meet the current residence requirements. <br>
<br>
Will travel overseas affect eligibility under the new requirements? <br>
<br>
Absences of up to 12 months during that four year period will be allowed, with no more than 3 months in the year before making the application. <br>
<br>
What effect will the new residence requirements have on temporary residents? <br>
<br>
The changes will recognise time spent in Australia as temporary residents prior to the acquisition of permanent residence. Up to three years of temporary residence can count towards the four year residence requirement for citizenship. <br>
<br>
Why is the Government changing the residence requirements? <br>
<br>
Australian citizenship is a privilege not a right. The Government is focused on ensuring that citizenship applicants have spent a reasonable period of time living in Australia so that they are familiar with the Australian way of life, and to appreciate the commitment that they are required to make when they become citizens. <br>
<br>
The new requirements also recognise the changes in the migration programme over the years which have resulted in an increasing number of people spending significant periods of time in Australia as temporary residents prior to becoming permanent residents. <br>
<br>
Are the new residence requirements similar to those in other countries? <br>
<br>
Yes. The United Kingdom requires five years lawful residence with no more than 450 days absence during that time. The United States requires five years permanent residence with absences of up to six months each year. Canada requires three years of permanent residence. <br>
