The Canadian Government offers the opportunity of obtaining the status of Canadian citizenship to dependent children of citizens of Canada.
Applicants whose at least one of the parents owns the status of Canadian citizenship can apply by submitting their application to the IRCC. Obtaining the status of Canadian citizenship involves submission of a Proof of Citizenship and a total cost of CAD $75.
An applicant can claim the status of Canadian citizenship at any point in their lifetime.
Applicants whose Canadian citizen parent has died can also apply for it.
Although the IRCC demands evidence of Canadian citizenship of the parents.
The applicant can submit any proof which shows that their parent is/was a Canadian citizen
For example- A citizenship Certificate, Birth certificate, etc.
The IRCC sends an “acknowledgment of receipt” after they receive the application of the applicant.
And after all the evaluations, approved applicants are then provided with a certificate of Canadian citizenship.
Owning a status of Canadian citizenship is advantageous in several ways. The country has a powerful economy with stability.
The country is safe for immigrants and citizens. It offers 0 cost access to healthcare and education to its people.
And the most important factor in gaining a status of Canadian citizenship is a strong visa. A Canadian passport offers you visa-free travel to a total of 185 nations.
To minimize the chances of getting the application rejected, it is recommended to hire a professional Canadian immigration lawyer who will help in the approval of the Canadian Citizenship application in the most accurate way.
As the IRCC has enlarged its processing time.
The processing time of the IRCC for the applications of Proof of Citizenship applications before the pandemic was only 5 months.
And now this has been elongated to a year and 5 months. A professional lawyer can assist you in eliminating additional time to get the Canadian Citizenship Certificate.
Conclusion – The Canadian Government is also putting efforts from their end to enhance the technical aspect which will assist in faster processing of applications.
