Who This Is For

Citizenship by naturalization is for permanent residents who have met Canada's physical presence and other eligibility requirements and are ready to become citizens. Common situations include:

• PR holders who have met the required days of physical presence
• Applicants preparing for the citizenship knowledge test
• Families applying together, including minor children
• Individuals confirming their tax filing history is in order
• PR holders unsure whether they currently qualify

Documents You'll Typically Need

Requirements are set by IRCC, but generally include:

• ✓ Valid PR card
• ✓ Proof of physical presence in Canada (travel history, addresses)
• ✓ Language test results (if not already on file)
• ✓ Tax filing history for the relevant period
• ✓ Identity documents for all applicants, including children
• ✓ Passport-style photos
