Tangney residents celebrating a special birthday or anniversary can receive personal congratulations from the Prime Minister, Governor-General or HM The King. If you, a loved one or a friend is celebrating a significant milestone, I am happy to help!
Eligible Occasions:
Australians can receive a message from the Prime Minister:
- on their 50th wedding anniversary and every year after*
- on their 90th birthday and every year after*
Australians can receive a message from the Governor-General:
- on their 50th wedding anniversary and every year after*

If you did not receive a message from HM The King for your 60th wedding anniversary or 100th birthday, you can request one for a subsequent occasion (ie: 61st wedding anniversary or 101st birthday). You do not have to wait until your 65th wedding anniversary or 105th birthday.
