How to read the City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder figures: 6 things to know
- The people counted are approved applicants who have not yet had their ceremony, including those already invited to one, at 31 October 2026.
- The time is how long each of them had been waiting since approval at that date. It is not the full wait of people who have already had their ceremony.
- Applications still waiting for a decision are not in these figures. They are counted on the citizenship processing time page.
- Councils with 1 to 4 people waiting are shown as "<5". The Department masks these for privacy.
- Council shares are the Department's own, rounded, so they may not add up to 100%. State and Australia shares are our totals, weighted by the number waiting in each council and rounded to add up to 100%.
- The Department publishes only the current month. We started keeping a copy on 13 November 2026, so this page has no earlier history.
These figures come from the Department of Home Affairs, not from City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder. Full decision times: Australian citizenship processing time.
