Frequently asked questions

Is this the real Australian citizenship test?

No. It is independent practice material. The real test is run by the Department of Home Affairs, and its questions on the day will be different from ours.

Where do the questions come from?

We wrote them ourselves from the free Home Affairs study book, Australian Citizenship: Our Common Bond. Each answer shows the book page it comes from.

Do you offer immigration or legal advice?

No. We do not tell you whether you are eligible and we do not help with applications. For that, speak to a registered migration agent or a lawyer.

Will this help me pass?

Practice helps many people feel ready, but we cannot promise a result. Use the Home Affairs study book too.

Is my score saved?

Yes, in your own browser on this device only. We do not collect it and there is no account.
