Your Path to Canadian Citizenship

A Canadian citizen is an individual who was born within the country's borders or a person who has received citizenship through naturalization. For an individual to become a naturalized citizen, a permanent resident who meets the criteria must first make an application to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (formerly Citizenship and Immigration Canada) to receive their certificate of citizenship.

Becoming a Canadian citizen is a significant milestone that offers numerous benefits, including the right to vote, access to social services, and the security of a Canadian passport.
