小孩在国内出生后，申请PR来澳洲，多久可以换CITIZEN？

GOOGLE了一下，很多人都提到小孩长大到18岁可以选择。
那意思是，小孩必须要等到18岁才能申请澳洲CITIZENSHIP？还是18岁以前任何时间可以申请CITIZENSHIP？
先谢过。

不用。看这个。

Residence Requirements Calculator  
  
This calculator will assist you to determine whether you satisfy the residence requirements for an application for conferral of Australian citizenship.

Australian Citizenship Act 2007 Residence Requirements

To satisfy the residence requirements you must have:

and

Lawful residence means residence in Australia on a temporary or permanent visa.

If any of the following applied to you in the past 4 years, please telephone our service centre on 131 880 during business hours to discuss your circumstances.

You obtained an e-visa to replace an expired RRV

小孩随父母啊。貌似小孩是PR，即使符合入籍条件，但是大人不入籍小孩也是不能入籍的。

好像不是。请看：
A person born outside Australia on or after 26 January 1949 may be registered as an Australian citizen by descent provided
they had an Australian citizen parent at the time of birth; and
if the Australian parent is also an Australian citizen by descent, that parent had lived legally in Australia for a total of 2 years, or the person has no other nationality;
Australian citizenship by descent is never conferred at birth. While it will be granted upon application if the requirements are met, no child born outside Australia to an Australian parent acquires citizenship until this step is taken.
很显然，要孩子父母是澳籍（居住2年）或者PR同意，并帮孩子申请公民就可以了，小孩他自己不能直接是。又或者孩子自己在澳洲10年也自动是（这是某些黑民的孩子也能转正的条件）。stateless persons born in Australia and granted citizenship under section 21(8) of the Act。 18岁以后要考试。
