  1. Hey SJ. Unsure if you’ve done your citizenship test yet but I was wondering if I could ask you a few questions about it, if you wouldn’t mind?? I’m also from Aus, coming over again this year. Just debating whether its easier to do it in Croatia or here. Soo much conflicting information about it. Let me know if you’d be happy to chat about it. Hailie

    1. Sorry dude, I have not done the test. But I cant see why it would matter where you do it – same test, same results :D Best of luck!

  2. Has anyone applied for naturalized citizenship recently? How did it go? What’s the current process like?

  3. She ‘s only 17 years old and the first female from Qatar to take part in the 2012 Olympics Games (London Games)

  4. Do you have to take this test if you are the descendant of Croatians? My local consulate mentioned this test when I asked about citizenship, but I thought the process would be simpler as a descendant.

    1. You need to check with your consulate. Lots of rules changed, so its best to ask them. But yes, in the past you did.
