How did it gain its independence

Australia has gained complete independence from Britain. This was a long process, beginning with Federation, when the six states came together as one federated nation, under an Australian Prime Minister. 

As a British Colony and later a British Dominion Australia gradually gained more and more autonomy. It did not achieve full independent Sovereignty until 3 March 1986, when the Australia Acts came into effect, terminating all British jurisdiction over Australia.
