Frequently Asked Questions

The citizenship test is part of the application process for most applicants for citizenship by conferral. It assesses English-language skills and knowledge of Australia and Australian citizenship. Home Affairs directs applicants to Australian Citizenship: Our Common Bond when preparing.

The current Standard Test has 20 multiple-choice questions and allows 45 minutes. To pass, you must answer all 5 Australian values questions correctly and score at least 75% overall (15 out of 20). Assisted Test arrangements differ for eligible applicants.

Values questions test your understanding of Australian values. The five values questions have a separate 100% pass requirement, even if your overall score is at least 75%.

Home Affairs provides the next steps after an unsuccessful test and explains how repeat appointments can affect an application. Check the current Home Affairs guidance and your appointment information for the rules that apply to you.

Most applicants for citizenship by conferral aged 18 to 59 sit the test. Home Affairs lists specific exceptions and support arrangements, so check its current guidance for your circumstances.

Your appointment information confirms where and when you will sit the official test. Locations and arrangements can vary, so rely on your Home Affairs appointment details.

Personal reference materials and devices are not permitted during the test. Home Affairs also describes support and Assisted Test arrangements for eligible applicants, so check its guidance if you need assistance.

Begin with Australian Citizenship: Our Common Bond and the official Home Affairs practice test. You can then use independent practice to identify topics to revisit. The five values questions have a separate 100% pass requirement.

Use practice scores to identify topics to revisit rather than as a prediction. The current Standard Test pass requirements are at least 75% overall and 5 out of 5 values questions, but a practice result does not guarantee an official result.

Study all four testable parts of Australian Citizenship: Our Common Bond. The values section also carries a separate requirement to answer all five values questions correctly.
