CITIZENSHIP APPLICATION

​

Canadian Citizenship is a status desired by many. It carries with it many rights and privileges. One such privilege is the benefit of being issued a Canadian passport.

​

New Canada’s Citizenship Act came to effect on June 11, 2015 and its regulations how to be eligible to become a Canadian citizenship, you must meet the conditions in all these areas:

• age,

• permanent resident status,

• time you have lived in Canada (residence),

• income tax filing,

• intent to reside,

• language skills,

• how well you know Canada, and

• prohibitions.

​

As a result of 2014 changes to the Citizenship Act, if you have served in or with the Canadian Armed Forces, you might be able to apply through a fast-track process. This is based on how long you have served our country, instead of how long you have lived in Canada. Foreign military members do not need to be a permanent resident of Canada.
