This chapter is primarily intended as a short guide of the basic process for obtaining a citizenship grant. For more detailed information refer to the Citizenship Act, RSC 1985, c C-29 and Citizenship Regulations, SOR/93-246.

This manual may aid individuals seeking assistance to determine whether they or their family members qualify for citizenship as well as individuals facing the loss of their citizenship status. Everyone should be encouraged to apply for citizenship as soon as they become eligible. It is important to be as thorough as possible with the initial citizenship application, as this is the best chance for obtaining citizenship.

NOTE: The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the efficiency of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (“IRCC”) and other organisations that provides assistance relevant to citizenship. Accordingly, there are currently delays in processing citizenship applications. For more details and the latest information, please see the IRCC website.
