Note	No record with Dept of Immigration for any requests to be naturalised. Probably not. National Archives of Australia National Reference Service Reference: NAA1000176226 Dear Ms Choy, Thankyou for your inquiry dated 28 September 2016 regarding the naturalization records of Chu Moy. We have searched our database Recordsearch without any success. We have also searched our microfiche cards Immigration Naturalisation index, dated 1904-1989, without success. A further search of a database that the National Archives has access to is created and maintained by the Department of Immigration, Multicultural and Indigenous Affairs and lists most people who have been granted Australian citizenship, from 1904-1994, we did not have any success there either
