The Practice Test covers questions from:

• Australia and its people.

The citizenship test does not cost any extra money. The test fees are included in your general citizenship application. You also do not need to pay extra to take the test more than once.

Format of the Australian citizenship test

The citizenship test is multiple-choice test of 20 questions, which means each question will be presented with 3 possible answers and you must choose the answer you think is correct.

The test has a pass mark of 75%, which means that you need to answer correctly 15 questions to pass the test.

Most people will take the Standard Test, which is computer-based and has a time limit of 45 minutes, meaning you have 2.25 minutes per question. During the test, you can be helped with the use of a computer if you are not familiar with it.

Australian citizenship test study material

The test questions are based on the testable section of the resource book Australian Citizenship: Our Common Bond. You have to memorize all facts contained in this testable section as nobody knows for sure which questions are going to appear on your test.

You will not be able to speak to anyone except the test administrator.

After completing the test, the computer screen will notify you if you have passed or failed the test. You will be able to take the test again, possibly the same day.

If you have passed the Australian citizenship test, your test result will be automatically transferred to your citizenship application file. You will need to wait for the overall result of your citizenship application process.
