Residency in Canada for a minimum of five years, fluency in English or French, and no serious criminal convictions are among the requirements for citizenship in Canada.
There are a number of requirements you must fulfil before you can submit an application for Canadian citizenship:
Citizenship in Canada requires you to be a permanent resident for at least five years. The expiration date of your Permanent Residence (PR) card is irrelevant, and you can still apply for permanent residency even if your card has already expired.
To maintain your permanent resident status, you must not be the subject of an immigration or fraud review, a removal order, or any unmet conditions (e.g., you have yet to complete a medical screening).
Before applying for Canadian citizenship, you must have resided in the country for at least three out of the previous five years (1,095 days) (unless there are exceptional circumstances).
Permanent residency status is required for minor children under the age of 18, but they are exempt from the three-year residency requirement.
If there’s a problem with your calculation, Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) suggests applying after more than 1,095 days in Canada.
Some of the time you spent in Canada as a temporary resident or protected person can count toward the required two years of physical presence if you later become a permanent resident.
You may count as a full day each of the last five years that you were a temporary resident or protected person in Canada. If you are a temporary resident or protected person, you can count up to 365 days of that time toward the minimum one-year residency requirement.
To become a Canadian citizen, you may need to have filed Canadian tax returns for a minimum of three of the five years prior to submitting your application for citizenship.
Even if you only spent a portion of the year in Canada, you may still need to file a tax return if any of the following apply to you:
You must pass a Canadian citizenship test if you signed your citizenship application between the ages of 18 and 54. There are 30 minutes to answer both multiple-choice and true/false questions on the test. Exams can be taken in either English or French.. 15 out of 20 is required to pass.
There will be questions on Canadian history, geography, economy, government, laws, and symbols, as well as individual rights and responsibilities as a Canadian.
Also, those between the ages of 18 and 54 will need to demonstrate that they can speak English or French at a CLB 4 proficiency level or higher. IRCC uses a number of methods to evaluate your linguistic competence, including
Multiple issues with the law and/or criminal history may also disqualify you from being granted Canadian citizenship.
You may not meet the requirements for citizenship if any of the following describe you:
