Subject: Official Information request - Request for Internal Decision Making Rules for the Citizenship Office

[You don't often get email from [FOI #20321 email]. Learn why this is important at https://aka.ms/LearnAboutSenderIdentific... ]

Dear Department of Internal Affairs,

Under the section 22 of the OIA, I would like to request:

Any document (including a manual) which is held by DIA and which contains policies, principles, rules, or guidelines in accordance with which decisions or recommendations are made in respect of any person applying to Citizenship by Grant. In particular the fail/pass criteria for the automated checks and how each application is allocated to its respected queue for manual assessment.

Thanks.

Yours faithfully,

John
