Canadian Citizenship by Naturalization

If you are a permanent resident of Canada and meet specific statutory requirements, you may be eligible to apply for Canadian citizenship through naturalization (Grant of Citizenship). This process involves meeting physical presence, language ability, and knowledge requirements set out under the Citizenship Act and related regulations.

Eligibility Requirements

To apply for Canadian citizenship as an adult (18 years of age or older), you must generally:

• Be a permanent resident of Canada

• Be 18 years of age or older

• Have been physically present in Canada for at least 1,095 days (3 years) within the 5 years immediately before the date of your application

• Demonstrate adequate knowledge of English or French, if required

• Demonstrate basic knowledge of Canada, including the rights, responsibilities, and privileges of citizenship

• Not to be under a removal order

• Not be prohibited due to criminality, security, or other grounds under the Citizenship Act

• Attend a citizenship ceremony and take the Oath of Citizenship, if approved.

Eligibility requirements are assessed by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). Meeting the minimum requirements does not guarantee approval.

Maintaining Permanent Resident Status

To maintain permanent resident (PR) status, you must generally be physically present in Canada for at least 730 days within a 5-year period. These days do not need to be consecutive.

In certain circumstances, time spent outside Canada may count toward the residency obligation, such as:

• Accompanying a Canadian citizen spouse or common-law partner abroad

• Working outside Canada for a Canadian business or the public service of Canada
