Just read Jaj's reply on the "Finally a permanent resident" thread and
got a sinking feeling.....
The link (http://www.citizenship.gov.au/media/...htm]http://ww-
w.citizenship.gov.au/media/change.htm[/URL] says that "A
person who applied for and acquired the citizenship of another country
before 4 April 2002 will have lost their Australian citizenship under
section 17 of the Act.
I have sent a front end loaded Prospective Spouse application to London.
My fiance was born in Australia, became an Australian Citizen, and then
was issued with a UK passport (showing UK Citizen) on September 2001.
She has not resumed her Australian Citizenship. She has lived in the UK
for 7 years and we visited Australia this year on holiday. She used her
Australian passport at customs.
Will this mean that the Visa application will be rejected, or put on
hold until citizenship is resumed or does it mean that the visa will be
issued but she will need to resume before she can live in Australia
again......
..... any ideas??
Oh and you might already have read this - put it on the wrong forum to
start with (put it in the Lifestyle & Culture section)
