Citizen Application

Citizen Application

Since 2010, Canada has welcomed an average of more than 260,000 permanent residents each year. Many of these newcomers are in the process of becoming Canadian citizens, and many more will apply for Canadian citizenship in the future. When that process is complete, they take loyalty oaths pledging their commitment to the responsibilities and privileges of Canadian citizenship.

Once you obtain your Canadian citizenship, you will be entitled to all of the rights and freedoms afforded to Canadian citizens.
  • Legal rights
  • Equality rights
  • Mobility rights
  • Aboriginal Peoples’ rights
  • The right to peaceful assembly
  • The right to vote
  • Freedom of thought
  • Freedom of speech
  • Freedom to practice religion
Citizenship Eligibility:
  1. Have permanent resident status
  2. be physically present in Canada for at least 1095 days
  3. meet the personal tax filing obligations in those three years
  4. if you are 18 to 54 years old. Have a minimum official language proficiency of CLB4
  5. pass the citizenship exam
Canadian citizenship will not be granted to applicants who:
  • Do not meet the minimum required residency days in Canada;
  • Cannot speak either English or French;
  • Do not pass their citizenship test and/or interview; or
