You will receive a letter of invitation from your Council after your application has been approved by the Department of Home Affairs. The time between the approval of your application and your ceremony can vary and Council is dependent upon Home Affairs to schedule your ceremony.
The invitation shows the date, time and place of the ceremony. You cannot choose where and when to attend your ceremony.
The invitation will tell you the number of guests you can invite. Your guests might have to sit apart from you during the ceremony. Make sure any children are well supervised. You should allow at least two hours for a citizenship ceremony. Your invitation will tell you when you should arrive for the ceremony so you can register and find your seat. The ceremony itself may take about one hour.
If you cannot attend or are enquiring where and when the next ceremony will be for your citizenship application please contact the Australian Government - Department of Home Affairs
