On June 11th 2015, changes to the ''Citizenship Act'' that had been phased in over the previous year were completed. Applicants may not be fully aware of these changes, but any applications submitted since June 11 2015 are bound by the current legislation. Clinicians assisting clients whose applications were submitted before this date will have to make careful note of the date, and then review the version of the Act that was in effect at the time the application was submitted.
