There is no specific amount of money required to get citizenship in Australia. Instead, the Australian government has a set of criteria that applicants must meet, including:
- Residency: You must have lived in Australia for at least four years, including at least one year as a permanent resident.
- Character: You must be of good character and have no criminal convictions.
- English language proficiency: You must be able to speak, read, write, and understand English to a certain level.
- Knowledge of Australian values: You must demonstrate an understanding of Australian values and history.
While there's no direct financial requirement, you need to be able to financially support yourself and your family in Australia. This includes demonstrating sufficient funds to cover:
- Living expenses: Rent or mortgage payments, food, utilities, and other daily necessities.
- Healthcare: You need to have access to health insurance, either through Medicare or private health insurance.
- Travel costs: You may need to travel for citizenship interviews or other requirements.
The Australian government has resources available to help you understand the citizenship process and the requirements for financial independence. You can find more information on the Department of Home Affairs website.
