Help Rosie Afford Citizenship
Donation protected
Hi everyone, I am asking for help with the application fee for Australian Citizenship.
As many of you know, I am a kiwi and I moved to Melbourne in 2014 to pursue a better life and opportunities.
What you may not know is the strange way in which the Australian Government has set up the Specialty Type Visa in which New Zealanders fall under which allows us to automatically become permanent residents upon flying here but prevents us from accessing any government aid or assistance whatsoever.
This has left me and many other kiwis in my situation in a lot of strife, especially since the pandemic. Since losing my job I haven’t been able to access unemployment, disability support or even disability employment services. I have been completely on my own and struggling through financial hardship now for an entire year.
The laws for kiwis applying for citizenship only recently changed allowing me to finally apply so that I can change this and gain access to the supports I desperately need as a disabled person. Citizenship will finally allow me eligibility to apply for NDIS, DSP, disability employment services and more which I have been without my entire time living here.
The application charge is $540
I am asking for $600 to offset the GoFundMe fees.
As I am unemployed and need the Citizenship to help me gain accessible employment and solutions I am not currently in a position to be able to afford this fee.
Anything you can donate to help me with this will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you so much,
Lots of love
