What is Our Common Bond?

Australian Citizenship: Our Common Bond is the official Home Affairs study resource for citizenship test preparation. AusMockTest uses its public testable structure as the study framework, but it is not an official government app.

Part 1Australia and its people: history, First Peoples, states, territories and national symbols.
Part 2Australia’s democratic beliefs, rights and liberties: voting, freedoms, rights and responsibilities.
Part 3Government and the law in Australia: Parliament, laws, courts, police, Constitution and referendum.
Part 4Australian values: the values questions are critical and must be practised separately.
