Which application option (https://www.ato.gov.au/individuals-and-families/tax-file-number/apply-for-a-tfn) are you trying to use? There's eligibility criteria listed at the top of each option so you should be able to tell if you're able to apply based on your situation. It's important to note that your TFN will be mailed to the address you put on the form so it may be best to hold off if you're going to move soon.
