This chapter is primarily intended as a short guide of the basic process of 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 a removal 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.
