Do you have Canadian roots? 

Your Family History Could Unlock Canadian Citizenship

Around the world, people spend hundreds of thousands of dollars pursuing a second citizenship. 

What if your path to Canadian citizenship is already written in your family history? 

Recent changes to Canadian citizenship law have created new opportunities for many descendants of Canadians born in Canada. If you have a Canadian parent, grandparent, great-grandparent, or even a more distant Canadian ancestor, you may have a claim to Canadian citizenship.

Why this Matters

A successful citizenship claim can provide access to: 

  • A Canadian passport 
  • The right to study in Canada without international student restrictions 
  • The right to live and work in Canada 
  • Access to the protections and benefits afforded to Canadian citizens 
  • The ability to pass citizenship rights to future generations in certain circumstances 

    Unlike many immigration pathways, a citizenship claim is not an application for permanent residence. If you qualify, you are seeking recognition of an existing legal right. 

Do you Qualify?

Every family history is unique. 

The strength of a citizenship claim depends on factors such as: 

  • Your family lineage
  • The dates and places of birth of your ancestors 
  • Historical citizenship laws that applied to your family 
  • The documents available to support your claim 

Many people are surprised to discover that they may have a stronger claim than they expected.
