The Australian Government Department of Home Affairs has set out the minimum age requirements that foreign nationals must meet when applying for Australian citizenship, with separate application pathways for different age groups.
According to the department, permanent residents aged 15 and under who wish to apply independently fall under one conferral category, while those aged 16 or 17 at the time of application are directed to a different pathway.
The two categories apply to young people submitting applications on their own rather than being included in an application made by a parent or guardian.
