The service is now available at 44 service centres across the country, with Services Australia delivering more than 2,800 tests every month.
Citizenship testing at the Biggera Waters Service Centre is a partnership between Services Australia and the Department of ³Ô¹ÏÍøÕ¾ Affairs.
The test consists of 20 multiple choice questions to demonstrate an applicants’ knowledge of Australia, the English language, understanding of what it means to become an Australian citizen and their commitment to Australian values.
