Dear Antonio,
I refer to your email dated 14 March 2022 in which you request access to documents
held by the Department of Home Affairs (Department) under the
Freedom of Information
Act 1982 (the FOI Act).
You have requested access to:
I would like to request information on the total number of applicants, as of June 2021,
that have been approved for Citizenship by conferral and are now waiting to attend a
ceremony in The City of Canterbury Bankstown.
I would also like to request the number of applicants who had the Citizenchip Test
approved before July 2021 and are now waiting to attend a ceremony in the City of
Canterbury Bankstown
On 27 April 2022, Department notified you of a requirement to pay a processing charge
of $15.00 in respect of your request.
In particular, Department notified you that, within 30 days of receipt of that letter, you
must either:
• agree to pay the charge; or
• contend that the charge has been wrongly assessed, should be reduced, or
should not be imposed; or
• withdraw the request.
Department notified you that if, within 30 days of receipt of that letter, you failed to notify
Department of one of the above matters, your request would be considered to have been
withdrawn.
The 30 day period has now expired and Department does not appear to have heard from
you in response to that Notice. As such, in accordance with section 29 of the FOI Act,
Department considers that your request has been withdrawn.
