Get Proof of Canadian Citizenship
If you are already a Canadian citizen, the most important document you need is your Citizenship Certificate. This certificate allows you to apply for a Canadian passport, which gives you the right to live, work, and study in Canada.
There are several ways you may already be a Canadian citizen:
1. Citizenship Through Parents (Descent)
If either one of your parents was a Canadian citizen at the time of your birth, you are already a Canadian citizen. You simply need to apply for Proof of Citizenship (Citizenship Certificate).
Start your online application today.
2. Citizenship Through Grandparents or Great-Grandparents
Thanks to Bill C-3 and the special interim measures in place, you may now be eligible to apply for Canadian citizenship if: Your grandparent or great-grandparent was a Canadian citizen when you were born. This new pathway has opened doors for many families with Canadian roots.
Start your online application today.
3. Citizenship Through Naturalization
If you immigrated to Canada and later applied for citizenship, you officially became a Canadian citizen after taking the Oath of Citizenship.
